First Computers in Homes Class in Marton November 2013

7 November 2013 was a very special day in Marton.  We had a huge turnout at Marton Junction School to celebrate the graduation of the first 10 Computers in Homes graduates ever in Marton.

Our event was hosted by Marton ICT Hub which ran Computers in Homes in Marton in conjunction with Marton Junction School and James Cook School. The principal Vanessa Te Ua hosted the event.  Both principals were very supportive of Computers in Homes and wished to see it continue in Marton in 2014.

The Mayor of Rangitikei Andy Watson was our guest speaker as was Councillor Jack Bullock, Wanganui District Council who was representing Annette Main, Mayor of Wanganui District Council.  Thank you also to the Councillors from Rangitikei Cath Ash and Mike Jones, the council staff from Wanganui and Rangitikei District Councils and the community representatives from Land based Training, Youth Club & Hype and ICENZ who attended.

Congratulations to all our graduates.

Thank you to all of the community and especially the families who came to support the graduates.  A bit thanks to all the Dad's who looked after the children.

And to the children of Marton Junction School who sang such wonderful waiata

And to our tutor Angela Coleman, Marton ICT who was marvellous at getting everything organised and going the extra mile to make sure that our families learnt what they needed
