Last week Mary and Josie had the great privilege of attending the launch of the online meeting place of the Gap Youth Centre Project in Alice Springs. The centre has created a vibrant online meeting place for their students to continue their learning journey where ever they are … in town, out bush or online at either!

The launch was ambitious, as Georgina and Linda opted to do it both online and in the internet cafe. Many guests in the cafe also logged in to Elluminate and could join online guests from Brisbane, America and all over the country.

Guests included representatives from DEET,DEST and the Desert Kowledge Centre, and well as many teachers, students and interested community groups.

They also launched their promotional video made using images and music of young people at the centre.

Well done to everyone - we look forward to seeing the development of the online meeting place.
