I have just returned from family information evenings held at both Parklands School and Auckland Point School.  It was lovely to meet families and introduce them to their tutors ready for a start to the programme near the beginning of the school term, around the middle of February.

Auckland Point School, Nelson

Parklands School, Motueka

Thanks to Kate Erikson - eLearning Lead Teacher for Parklands School, and Sonya Hockley Principal of Auckland Point School, for their enthusiasm and commitment to host the programme within their schools and to organise their families to attend the information evening and learn of the benefits of the programme for them and their families. 



Nelson Central School





Auckland Point School will also be hosting families from Nelson Central School.  Auckland Point School has also offered to host families from any other schools who are without a computer and an internet connection so they can also benefit from the programme.  Please contact Sonya Hockley at Auckland Point School or myself on the contact listed on this page.  We look forward to receiving any enquiries.

Cheers Denise

Welcome to our new Nelson / Marlborough blog site!!

Di Daniels, our National Coordinator, has been working closely with the Nelson / Marlborough region since 2011.  Now she is in the process of passing the reins to me and I have had the privilege of visiting Blenheim and the wonderful team at Bohally Intermediate.  Thanks to Cathy-Ann for her great tutoring and continued support and Carmen for all the tech support which is continuing through to 12 month Rejuvenation.  Also thanks to Andrew Read, Principal of Bohally Intermediate for supporting this process and hosting families from other schools in the area! 

When visiting Nelson I was able to attend a training session at Victory School and meet some of the team there.  It was great to see the class in action - lots of learning going on!!

We have two new schools who are going to be hosting the Computers in Homes programme in the near future.  Welcome to Parkland School, Motueka and Auckland Point School, Nelson.  It has been wonderful to meet you and exciting to begin the process of introducing this training into your schools.

Both of these schools are now at the stage of invited families to information evenings to be held mid November, and from there enrolments will be completed and training dates set.  Looking forward to it!

Cheers Denise
