On a cold and wet Wellington day, a group of 10 ākonga aged 7 to 10 gathered at the Wellington Visual Resource Centre for a day of learning, exploration, and connection. Throughout the day, the children developed their iPad skills, experimented with creative tools such as iMovie, and learned how to use features including screen magnification and other accessibility functions to support their learning.
A highlight of the day was helping many of the ākonga set up access to their local library services and BorrowBox, enabling them to independently discover and enjoy a wide range of digital books and resources. Alongside their learning, the children enjoyed the opportunity to connect with peers, share experiences, and build confidence in using technology to support their everyday lives.
