Technology at Saint Mary's Catholic College supports our vision of offering rich, well resourced, relevant and diverse curriculum for learning in the 21st Century.
Students use technology to complete work, share ideas, learn specific skills as well as to meet, collaborate and create content virtually. When technology integration in the classroom is seamless and thoughtful, students not only become more engaged but they also begin to take more control over their own learning.
Saint Mary's Managed Device Program guarantees equitable, reliable, affordable and sustainable device solutions that ensure students have access to technology throughout the curriculum from Prep to Year 12. Additionally, this program ensures that our students are fully prepared with the digital skillset for their educational journey.
