Secondary Digital Technology

In Year 7, we have started the year by solving encryptions. Students have been learning how computers talk across networks to keep our information safe. We have also started our coding journey using the Blockly style, writing small programs using print and variable commands.

Year 8's are using Python coding and trying out game making platforms. These students are grasping new technologies at lightning paces.

Year 9 and 10 Digital Technology options is a busy space. While all students are learning the language of webpage creation in HTML and CSS, students have broken into pathways of interest and passion. Some extension students are learning C++ and C# for extended gaming programming and others are looking at creating simple recognition AI programs. There are many other areas as fresh off the state winners, Minecraft next round of Esports competition is on, as well as animation programs, 3D printing and even photography! Things are busy in the digital workspace.
