Carisbrook CiH & Stepping UP Families Graduate in June

Well we thought last night was cold but tonight the weather threw everything at us bitterly cold gale force winds, rain, and even some snow flurries. Still we had an awesome turnout of families albeit in the more cosier atmosphere of the staffroom. CiH National Coordinator, Di Daniels, and Deputy Mayor Chris Staynes braved the conditions to help celebrate with these families, and Principal Ben Sincock offered his congratulations to them, along with an invitation to continue with further training at his school. After some very inspiring words from all three of our guests, Neal started the night by awarding certificates to thirteen of his students who had completed at least four of their Digital Steps with Stepping Up. Then Tony & Liz awarded completion certificates to another thirteen Computers in Homes families, who were stoked to be taking their machines home. It was great to see that of these, eight were ready to begin their next journey in learning and would attending Stepping UP classes with Neal starting tonight. What great role models they have become for their children. So it was with alot of very wide grins that the night came to an end, and after posing for the mandatory family photo all seem to race of into the storm with machines under arms.
