Every boy is required to bring one of the prescribed laptops to school every day.
A laptop committee (parent and school representatives) negotiates the best possible deal and appoints the preferred supplier(s) who offer a selection of machines from which to choose. Please note that purchasing an alternative make/model of laptop from an alternate supplier is not an option and we ask parents to respect this decision.
There is a prescribed choice of both Dell and Apple machines from which to choose.
Please see below the Dell and Apple offers and purchasing processes. (October 2022)
