nell79 Posted January 16, 2021 Author Share Posted January 16, 2021 Update 16th JanuaryThank you so much to all of you who have donated laptops. With a bit of work on them, some really old laptops have been bought back to life, and are now working brilliantly as chromebooks. Some others have worked well with Windows 10. We have managed to get 28 to the school so far, which are already loaned out to families. Thank you to all of you who have helped us in our appeal.We still need more of course as there are many children without access to a computer still, and this lockdown looks to be likely to continue for some time. This is an opportunity not only to help local children and families, but also to give a new lease of life to laptops which otherwise might just be for recycling. We have also had some kind donations to our Friends of Goose Green School Just Giving page which are going towards more laptops, so thank you so much for these too. Goose Green primary is part of Communitas, which runs three other schools (in Peckham, New Cross, and Rotherhithe), and we would of course share computers out to other schools if we manage to meet the demand at Goose Green. Thank you again for your help!

Catzy Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Hi there I too have a laptop. It's a HP, about 4 years old but barely used as it wasn't very good. Think it needs an overhaul. You're absolutely welcome to it if you think you can make use of it.Am happy to drop somewhere too if you'd like it. Please do PM me.ThanksEmma Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/270288-please-help-goose-green-primary-by-donating-old-laptops/page/2/#findComment-1483702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
