On the 3rd March 2022 the Technology Department had the opportunity to participate in and share various aspects of our teaching and learning in the Technology - Manaiakalani Department Discussions, facilitated by Kerry Boyde-Preece.

As well as sharing an overview of the Technology Department, which you can follow by accessing our presentation Manaiakalani Technology Department Discussion | March 2022 bit.ly/3IDreqp, the Techies also shared in some of the developments within their own Specialist Subject Areas.
