Netbooks

Many of you maybe aware that we have recently installed a campus wide wireless network. Our aim is to encourage students to make the best possible use of this exciting addition to our learning environment here at St Kevin's College. Ideally students can do this by having portable devices such as netbooks, cellphones and the like, connecting these to the wireless network and using their device in the classroom to enhance the learning process.
We would like to make parents aware of what we consider to be an excellent deal being offered by Noel Leeming for an entry level netbook, costing $398.00. Although the software is not ideal for our system, we are prepared to upgrade individual machines with relevant software at no extra cost.
We will continue to explore a range of options with local providers and have already ordered some demonstration netbooks to test them with our system. Some of our students have already purchased the machine listed above and it is working seamlessly with our system.
