RAD - Recycle a Device Club
Have fun learning, fixing computers and helping the environment. Students meet every Tuesday at the start of Lunchtime in C11 to repair laptops - new members are welcome.
To date our RAD Club Students have fixed 23 Laptops. Of these 16 have been gifted to Tawa College for Students to loan out for their learning and seven laptops have been sent to Christchurch for RAD to distribute them. For more information visit: www.recycleadevice.nz
New 3D Printer
Mr Foulds worked with Tony Hassed from the Tawa Technology Education Trust to purchase our new 3D printer for Digital Technologies in 2024. An ORIGINAL PRUSA MK4 3D PRINTER KIT
To support the purchase the Tawa Technology Education Trust has organised a grant of $1,200.
I would like to say ngā mihi nui to Tony Hassed and the Tawa Technology Education Trust for their time and support in helping make this purchase happen. Our Digital Technology students will now enjoy the use of two 3D printers. The new Prusa MK4 Printer arriving in May 2024 is of a very high quality and can print to a much larger scale.
