In Term 3 Tikipunga Primary School celebrated their first graduating class, then in Term 4 2011 they did it all over again with another group of 12 graduating families !
Acknowledgement must go to Principal Donna Donnelly and Assistant Principal Chris De Gouviea-Rennie for the uncompromising support for the Computers in Homes programme. Both spent their own personel time at the school during Saturday's so this group of parents could train out of school hours. Teachers work long hours as it is, so to give up your family time purely for the interests of your school community is deeply appreciated by myself and the CiH team.
May I remind readers that CiH is a not-for-profit organisation. No ones makes any money out of this project, the schools receive no monetary gain but are asked to put time and energy into something that will help their families. I am often humbled by our NZ educators who seek nothing more than to see their school rise in digital literacy and skills. All the staff at Tikipunga Primary and attending families should be very proud of the ethos of their school.

| Couldn't resist adding this one, some wonderful kids get acknowledged for school traffic monitors on the same day! |

| Time to pick up their PC's after a lovely morning tea - thank you Isha for organising that as well as doing the training :) |
