Laptops given new lease on life at Te Puke schools
Powerco is donating laptops to Te Puke High School and Te Puke Intermediate for the schools’ rangatahi (young people) to use.
Following the recent rollout of new laptops at Powerco, many of the old laptops were found to be in good working condition, prompting the decision to give them a second life in classrooms across the company’s network footprint.
Around 500 laptops are being donated across the North Island, including the 30 to Te Puke High School and another 15 to Te Puke Intermediate that were delivered this week.
Powerco General Manager Customer Stuart Dickson says Powerco regularly updates its computers, with its IT Services team cleaning and preparing the laptops ready for the students to use.
“As a company, Powerco believes in supporting and giving back to the communities in which we operate. Donating the laptops is also a sustainable way of extending the life of the technology,” he says.
