2020 Years 4, 5 & 6 App List and Setup Guidelines
28 January 2020 Dear Parents/Carers Students in years 4, 5 and 6 have the opportunity to bring their own iPad to school in 2020. Parents who are new to our school or parents of our current year 4 students can locate a copy of Aspley’s BConnected policy and associated information on our school website. It is located under the Curriculum Tab/Subjects and Programs/BConnected, or click on the following link. (Bconnected) This letter lists the apps that are required to be downloaded onto students’ iPads as well as guidelines to set up
your child’s iPad for use at school. If your child is already using an iPad, s/he will have most of these apps, however could you please check this list to ensure that all apps are downloaded. Please
Download the apps that are outlined on the apps list.
Follow the instructions to create the folders needed to keep the apps organised. Other information and helpful links have also been included.
Please download the apps before the commencement of the school year. If your child is already using an iPad year, s/he will already have most of these apps. The prices of the apps are subject to change. If an app which has been listed below as free, now has to be purchased, please check first with your child’s teacher before downloading the app. Several of the ‘free’ app icons are programs paid by the school as subscriptions, using the Student Resource Scheme contribution. Other apps may need to be installed when needed in 2020.
