July featured class at 11am on Thursday 23rd is Barry’s Online Security class, which covers how to enjoy the considerable benefits of the online world safely. This applies to PC, Laptop, Android phone or tablet and iPhone, iPad. The ‘snake oil’ salesmen have moved to online, and it’s easy to be put off by all the scare stories in the media. But if you take a few sensible precautions, you can
avoid being caught out. The class covers the main easy actions you can take to keep safe. You’ll learn that the biggest risk is the same as it always was -YOU and what you do or more importantly, DON’T do.

March 2026 update #5

Hello SeniorNet Hutt City Members
It’s a quiet week with no scheduled classes. If you’re going away over the Easter period don’t forget that Google Maps can help you find not only a known address but also public transport options and timings as well as the nearest open café etc. And if your family get a new phone for Easter and want to hand their older one on to you, then our tutors can help you to get over the initial strangeness and make it useful to you.
There are still a couple of places available for the Apps class after Easter 10:30 on Thursday 16th April.
So I hope Easter is a time of refreshment (self and culinary) for you all.
Note that the office won’t be staffed on Easter Monday.
