Project Launch - News Clippings

These clippings are from the Gisborne Herald on Tuesday 28th November.
One of the clippings is from a sister Computer in Homes programme that was run at Te Karaka school.
If you can't read the clippings right click on the picture and go Save Picture As, and save in My Pictures. You can then increase the magnification of the picture when you open it in a picture viewer software programme like Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.
