Tech Tools at Kyffin

Below is a list of resource tools that we use at Kyffin for learning, but we encourage students and families to access them outside of school for homework, projects, or a rainy day.

Technology change very quickly, as do their links, so it is impossible to fully review the sites as we would like to.

We hope that you and your children will explore these sites TOGETHER.
