26 June 2013

We are just over half way 'til Christmas.  Scary stuff!!! 

We have two new Computer in Homes groups started in Westport.  The first group started on the 10th June and are already whizzing through the programme and growing in confidence session by session.  Their computers have been ordered and we are now organising SNAP internet connections for those who need it.

 

 

The second group started this week.  Their sessions are Mondays from 1-3pm and Thursdays from 9-11am.  We were having a real struggle to find a timeslot that worked for everyone, but we settled on these times as our best choice. There are a couple of places left on this course so if you contact me in the very near future it shouldn't be too late to come on board.  A great chance to learn some new skills!


Computer Club

There have been requests for regular computer time get togethers from people who have completed Computers in Homes and Stepping Up courses.  They wanted an opportunity to practice the skills they had learnt, to have a tutor available for support if it was required and to help with any issues they were having on their computers at home, and to reconnect with the group they went through their courses with. 
So, finally today we had our first "Computer Club" session.  It was held between 1.30 and 3.30pm for any past Computers in Homes or Stepping Up people.  We will trial this for the two weeks and see how it works for everyone.   Any past trainees are welcome to join us.  See you next Wednesday!!
