Digital License Assembly

We also had a fun Game Show Quiz that Dominic Bowden (from X Factor NZ) was the MC for! There were three teams: The Dominators, the Smashers and the Crushers.

What was the Digital License Launch all about?

What were the quiz questions about? (How to be Cybersmart!)

Who were the captains for the teams? Who won?
