Term 2 2013

By -
This is our end of Term 2 everything went really well. 2 Graduations one at Lakeview where we had 16 and the other one at our new School MPS (Masterton Primary School) where we had 10, so 25 received computers along with their USB's and Parent Packs and also I have had 16 sign up for the internet majority of them all on on Naked Broadband.
Our Stepping up program is also going well. We have put through 2 people for Adult Learners Award which also they will receive their Stepping Up Certificate. 2 people have done 11 Digital Steps which is cool considering one of them is a granddad and father didn't know what the heck he was doing he was quite scared by it when he started.
Our Tutor Lisa Gray has just done her diagnostics on Kiwi Skills now she just has the Test to do. Way to go Lisa.

Stepping Up still going so thats okay for now. By Term 4 hopefully we will have our other 2 new schools on board.

She is trying to work out the computer puzzle which my Tutor does for them and its based on everything
they learn within the 8weeks and another parent at the back trying to figure out how to put a computer together.
These 2 lovely Ladies also trying to workout their spreadsheets and the Cut Copy and Paste.
The lovely gentleman has just worked out what his mouse can do besides the lady beside him
trying to figure out what she done  and whether its right or not.

Well its that time again for 2013 so bring it on. For Term 1 we have already started our "Stepping Up" program Tuesday evenings 6 - 8.30pm and Thursday afternoon 12.30 - 2.45pm, still at Ko Te Aroha. I have got 16 registered for this program at the moment. At the end of last year I had one lady do 11 modules! We are hoping to start our normal CIH class this term. Our internet connections are working well at this moment we have connected so many people which is really good. Also this year we are visiting 3 new schools - Masterton Primary, Douglas Park and Chanel College not forgetting our existing schools.

Wendel Richardson has formally joined the team this year. As the Education Manager for Wairarapa REAP, Wendel has been involved in the background up until now, but she will replace Peter McNeur as the Project Manager from the beginning of the year. Peter will still have a background involvement as he refuses to move too far away from this wonderful work.
