We
recognise
that to
succeed
in most
professions
today
computer
literacy
is
almost
as
important
as
reading
and
writing.
For many
years we
have
been
running
a laptop
program
in our
Middle
and
Senior
Schools.
We have
installed
a
wireless
network
throughout
Peninsula
which
allows
students
to log
on to
the
School’s
intranet
from
virtually
anywhere
on the
campus.
Students
can
often be
seen
checking
their
own
network
page
during
recess
times
for
assignments
and
results.
Most of
our
students
use
their
laptops
on a
daily
basis
and, in
some
cases,
can only
hand in
their
homework
through
the
network.
At
Peninsula,
laptops
and
computers
are not
a fad
but a
necessary
tool to
help
face
tomorrow.
To make
sure the
technology
downtime
doesn’t
slow the
work we
have a
centrally
located
dedicated
computer
Service
Department
for any
technical
mishaps.
The many
achievements
above
confirm
our
belief
in a
strong,
values-rich
and
balanced
education.
The
Peninsula
experience
prepares
our
students
for a
lifetime
of
achievements,
in
whatever
field
they may
excel.
The
parents
don’t
miss out
either!
Peninsula
is very
conscious
of its
carbon
footprint
and we
have
taken
steps to
minimise
waste
and
remain
eco-friendly.
The vast
majority
of
promotional
materials,
such as
this
brochure,
and
stationery
are
printed
on
sustainable
paper,
made in
eco
friendly
mills.
Wherever
possible
we
transmit
information
in
digital
format
rather
than
hard
copy.
We limit
the
amount
of hard
copy
mail to
parents
and
distribute
vital
information
through
a weekly
online
news
sheet –
E-News.
This
means
that
parents
of
Peninsula
students
must be
able to
go
online
at least
once a
week to
check
this
valuable
web page
for
information
pertinent
to their
child!
