At Mana we don’t mind what type of Chromebook or Laptop you purchase. However, please make sure it has sufficient battery life to last the day so that you are not required to plug in during lessons.

The following is a list of options and potential support agencies for getting a device:

There are three categories of subsidies for chromebooks. A family may be entitled to more than one of the subsidies.

  1. For whānau who are purchasing a chromebook for a second child or to replace a device that was purchased three or more years ago. ($100 subsidy)

  2. For whānau who are purchasing a third device (that is, there are three children who require a device). The third device costs 50% of the price.

  3. For students who meet the criteria for for learning support and have been declined for a MOE funded device – 50% off the cost of a device.
