20-20 Trust

The 20-20 Trust who runs the “Computers in Homes” programme is working with the Trust to provide cybersmart training for whanau and enable those who don’t have internet at home for affordability reasons, subsidised support so that their child’s learning environment extends to the home 24/7. There are up to 300 families involved in 2015. All will go through the cybersmart training so that parents get a good grounding in their child’s new learning environment and how they can access and navigate their way through their child’s work. 100 of those families will be offered more comprehensive support around affordable internet. Sue Kini, the Computers in Homes coordinator for the Whangarei region, is working with the schools to set this up. It is a fantastic coup for this programme and our community that 2020 is on board to make this work for us all.
