We are a Bring Your Own Device school

Puckapunyal Primary School is a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) school.   This means that all classes encourage students to bring their own device, preferably an Apple iPad or iPad Mini device, to support their learning. 

Devices need to have the recommended Apps downloaded on them so teachers can most effectively plan for their integration into the learning process.
