New Computer in Homes Families
Right now in Whanganui, it all seems quiet because we have no new courses starting right now. However there are 6 classes running in Whanganui and Marton. We have two classes graduating in October and four classes graduating in November. So that will mean we will have up to 60 new Computers in Homes families in Whanganui for Christmas.
We will keep you posted on their progress.

Ake Ake CTC August 2013
On 15 August 2013 nine new families joined our Computer in Homes Wanganui graduate list. These families were a great bunch and were very committed to learning about what computers had to offer. They enjoyed gathering and learning each week at this really showed in how the group came together and achieved.
Here are some of the photos of our graduates.

Whanganui Learning Centre August 2013
Our nine graduates in this class came from all over Whanganui. Several of them travelled from up the Whanganui River taking an hour to travel to each class. It was wonderful to see them learn and graduate. While the graduation was small due to one mum having a baby and others being sick it was still a warm and heartfelt celebration of these families getting to grips with technology.

Congratulations to our Tech Ex Winners for 2013
Tech Ex 2013 was a great event for Computers in Homes Whanganui. In our stand we highlighted the pictures and stories of our graduates from previous years. We also ran a prize draw for new and previous Computers in Homes families.
Trisha Ngatai expressed interest in Computers in Homes courses coming up. She won our prize of a 32 GB USB Flash Drive. This is a photo of her and her son Steven with their prize. Our team wishes them well on their CIH journey.
Ariana Wiatai was the winner of the CIH Graduates draw and won a Skype kit for her computer. Ariana completed her course in 2010. She wrote "I gained confidence in basic computing but my children have definately benefited from having a computer in the home for school and personal use. Thank you so much Computers in Homes"

Tech Ex 2013
Thank you to everyone who supported us at Techex this year. It was a great event.
Here is Robin Williamson (pictured to the right), who does our graduation surveys at our stand. We focused this year on telling the stories of what our graduated got out of having a Computer in Homes PC. It was well received and we have many families to follow up with either on Computers in Homes or Stepping Up training.
The star of the Tech Ex event were the KiwiSkills stand and their epic IT challenge. It was great to see so many getting very serious about technology challenges. Here are the serious faces of the challengers
