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 ThursdayRead More →
