St Cecilia’s 2026 BYOD ORDERING PROCESS

Dear parents and carers,

Thank you to all of you who were able to attend the online information session.

Here is a brief summary of the program as outlined in the session for those who were unable to attend.

We have worked with LWT (Learning With Technologies), a technology in education specialist provider, to set up our BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) Program.

The program will mean that students will have their own chromebook device that they will be responsible for and will be able to use both at school and at home.

The devices will still remain managed under the school’s Google Education domain, which will allow for the school to help ensure safe and appropriate use of the devices.

The program was introduced in 2022 for the year 3 students and has continued to roll out over the past 3 years. Next year all students from year 3-6 will have their own device.

We are requiring that families of any student going into Year 3 next year (Current Year 2 parents), purchase a device before the end of the year so that it can be set up and ready to use on day one 2026.

We are confident that this program further enhances our students ability to engage in learning about digital technology and indeed access resources related to all areas of the curriculum.

For further information about the program please refer to the Digital Learning Policy which was sent out along with this document, and to the details presented in the parent information session.

The link below will give you access to the information shared in the parent information session and our Digital Learning Policy. You will also find a full recording of the session in the folder.
