As one of our graduates said at the graduation "without the support of our families we would not have been able to do the study time" and we thank the families for their support too.
Computers in Homes is not just about getting a computer at home but mainly about being able to use it properly so we get the best success for our children. Here is feedback from one of our last years graduates “My daughter's skills have improved in learning to spell words and searching for stuff. She's always asking "Mum how do you spell '?'", and I say to sound it out and she start typing it. Her maths is good and this is even reflecting in her work in class. She was stink at maths really, but got onto the maths game and kept going because she liked getting a smiley face when she got something right, and liked going up a level. She won an award for "Clever Thinking" in class! Now it's always "Look Mum I've found this ...."
This is why we have Computers in Homes. Congratulations to our new graduates. We look forward to hearing your stories.
