Children at Elmwood Infants' School in Thornton Heath, Surrey

Children at Elmwood Infants' School in Thornton Heath, Surrey have become stars of their own Internet website. Parents can check the site for a diary of events and reports of the school's activities and trips. Julie Briant, acting headteacher, said, 'It has introduced a new dimension to schoolwork. The children love working with computers. It's exciting to see them developing skills so quickly. In an ethnically diverse school like ours, it's another way of getting children from a range of backgrounds to co-operate and work together effectively.'
