For all current S2 Parents, Carers and Students.

We are excited to announce that we will be hosting an online iPad Launch for current S2 students on Tues 15 June 5:45pm – 6:15pm. We highly recommend all parents, carers and students attend as there will be key information shared about the advantages of using iPads, how they will be managed and the process for distribution (as things remain different due to COVID restrictions). There will also be time for questions.
