The donation consisted of 150 personal computers installed in three classrooms, 200 laptop computers stored in one big strongroom, 400 tablets and uncapped Wi-Fi connection for the next three year. The school security system was also upgraded to top of the range for safe keeping of the technological devices. Most of the teachers at the school were so excited and had high plans on how to use these tools in teaching and learning. Ms Explorer was one of those teachers who was keen to use technology in teaching and learning.
