BRING YOUR OWN DEVICE (BYOD) AT KAIAPOI HIGH SCHOOL
In 2021, all students will be using BYOD. This enables our students to fully access and utilise the amazing resources available and work in the fully integrated modern learning style. Currently, our WIFI network is open for all students to connect two of their own devices. This has enabled more digital technologies to be incorporated into the classroom and the benefits have been huge for our students.
Students will need to download Google Chrome on their device before their first day of school. Please contact the school if you have any queries regarding BYOD.
If you already have a device and would like to confirm that it is suitable for our high school, please email Nic Thomas at n.thomas@kaiapoi.school.nz.
