BYOD

We want everyone in our school to have access to digital technologies and learning from home and school, anywhere, anytime.

We are requesting that all students bring a computer/chromebook to school. Chromebooks are a lightweight and affordable option for school and some recommended devices can be found on the Aotea College PBTech page below and in the BYOD section of the Noel Leeming website. Please note: other equivalent chromebooks or laptops with a keyboard and long battery life are acceptable. PBTech and Noel Leeming offer insurance options and a number of finance deals which allow payment to be spread over 3 to 36 weeks.
