This week we welcome again the Optus digital education program, Digital Thumbprint to deliver workshops to our Years 7, 9 and 11 students. Delivered in class to students by a facilitator, the program's fun and interactive workshops are tailored to the needs of specific year groups.
Optus Digital Thumbprint is an award winning** innovative education program that gives high school students an insight into the online world, and how to become savvy members of Australia's online community.
