The rollout of 1:1 devices in Nenagh College commenced this academic year, with TYs being the first year group to each have their own device.

The students are enjoying using their Lenovo hybrid laptops. They use them for most classes; for research, for communication, note taking and assessments through teams, for HTML coding and even to play a educational game or two such as kahoot and blooklet.
