Whiteboards come in government roll-out

Umina Public School, Woy Woy South Public School and Woy Woy Public School will receive digital whiteboards as part of the NSW Government's rollout.

Member for Gosford Cr Chris Holstein said the announcement marked a great start to the new school term for students and teachers on the Peninsula.

"This major investment means we are giving our students and teachers the best facilities possible to create a great learning environment," said Cr Holstein.

"Interactive whiteboards allow NSW classrooms to make the best use of the digital revolution.

"Interactive whiteboards transform the learning process and prepare students to work in a connected, digital world.

"With this technology, teachers can personalise lessons, use a variety of media and access information from online learning programs on sites such as NASA, all without leaving the classroom," said Cr Holstein.
