[Year 12 IPM] Exceptional young students

[Zach Alexakos]

Hello Shane,

Your solution is Blender- 3D Modelling and Gaming.  Visit 
http://www.blender.org  This will keep your students occupied for the next 
six years.  They would also be eligible for the open Games competition- we 
will be involved next year if there is enough student motivation.

You can purchase the Blender gamekit for 12 Euros (20 Au dollars) and 
download it on-line.  It's great value.

regards,
Zach Alexakos
