DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY
Preparing students for their future is a fundamental priority for St Robert’s. This means that along with being literate and numerate, our students need to develop creativity, digital and problem-solving proficiencies.
In Years 4-6 each student receives an iPad. These iPads remain the property of the school and remain on school grounds. The iPad is a powerful and robust device that promotes student learning in contemporary and creative ways. Students having direct access to their very own device maximises this great potential. It is important to note that the iPad is used as a tool for learning and does not replace essential items such as paper and pencils.

Creating safe and responsible digital citizens is of the utmost importance
to St Robert’s. We believe that when there is a shared responsibility between
the home and school, strong cyber safe practices for all will be achieved.
We support the age requirements set by social media and gaming
platforms. These limits are set due to content and risk associated with online
communities. For more information you can visit the eSafety Commissioner.
