The school has recently embraced the computing platform being developed by Google after the installation of a high speed microwave internet service.
Students in Year 11 now use Google Chromebooks as their laptop device, which provides an internet connection, access to all its online tools and the ability to store work in the computing “cloud”, meaning all the students’ work is accessible from any internet connection and device, and can be easily shared with their peers.
Students in other years also spend time each week with Chromebooks and the current plan is to extend the program to more years in the school in the future.
