1:1 MacBook Program Year 3 Ordering for 2017
Dear families,
The Winthrop Portal is now open. Please type the link below into the top search bar (internet browser) of your computer to view the available options.
Please note: you can select just the MacBook Air computer to purchase or include the peripherals, such as the bag, the hard drive for backing up the computer, Apple Care and Insurance coverage, as well.
It is your choice as to what extras you purchase from the portal, however, It is imperative that all students have a carry bag and a 1TB hard drive.
Apple Care is basically an extended warranty (3Years) instead of the normal one year warranty that Apple automatically provides on parts such as the hard drive, screen issues etc. It also offers technical support and a pick up service from the school for any computer hardware problems. Apple Care doesn’t cover accidents such as water spills, dropping the computer etc as these are deemed to be human error. Problems such as these would need to be covered by an insurance policy. Some families choose to put the computer on their household insurance and others like to take out insurance specifically for the computer.
Your child’s Year 3 teacher will be contacting you soon to find out if your child will be taking part in the 1:1 MacBook program in Year 4. It is important information for us in forming next year’s classes.
Please contact the school if you have any questions regarding the 1:1 MacBook Program for next year.
Kind regards
Nola Smith
Deputy Principal
