In modern education, technology plays a pivotal role, with laptops becoming an indispensable tool for students' learning.

However, the convenience of portable technology comes with its vulnerabilities, notably the risk of liquid damage and physical breakages. So far this year we have experienced several incidents where students' laptops suffered damages due to accidental drops or liquid damage from leaking drink bottles within their bags, leading to costly repairs or, in some cases, complete loss of the device. Such setbacks not only disrupt students' education but also impose unexpected financial burdens on families.

In response to this, we highly recommend the use of a laptop sleeve or protective case as a practical solution. Whilst they do not guarantee full-proof protection, these accessories are designed to mitigate the risks associated with daily laptop use, especially in a school environment where the hustle and bustle can lead to accidents.

If you’d like to purchase a protective sleeve for a device, we can suggest purchasing from our partner, Cyclone. After clicking the link above, select Rangi Ruru Girls’ School from the drop down menu, then click ‘Browse’. Then select the ‘Peripherals and Accessories’ option from the menu on the left side of the screen, and finally select ‘Bags, Cases and Sleeves’.
