Bartmore Donates Computers to Boost Digital Literacy at Roma Academy
In today’s digitally driven world, the importance of fostering digital literacy from a young age cannot be overstated. Recognizing this crucial need, Bartmore Technical College recently took a significant step towards promoting digital literacy by donating computers to Roma Academy. This initiative aims to encourage the early adoption of technology and equip students with essential digital skills that are vital for success in the modern era. The donation event took place during this year’s Easter festivities, where Bartmore Technical College welcomed the little friends from Roma Academy for a day of mentorship and celebration. Together, we sang, we danced, we learned, we laughed, and enjoyed a sumptuous meal courtesy of our Food & Beverage students led by Lydiah and Diana, and Zetu Caterers(by J.I wa Kidato Kimoja). The entertainment was headlined by the highly talented Pro Mash Wonder. It was a heartwarming occasion, marked by the spirit of giving and the shared belief in the transformative power of education. At Bartmore Technical College, we understand that access to technology plays a pivotal role in shaping the educational journey of students. By providing Roma Academy with computers, we hope to bridge the digital divide and empower young learners with the tools they need to thrive in today’s digital landscape. But our commitment to advancing digital literacy doesn’t stop there. Bartmore Technical College continues to prioritize investment in high-tech ICT infrastructure to enhance learning outcomes for our students. We believe that integrating technology into education not only prepares students for future careers but also fosters innovation and creativity in problem-solving. Moreover, embracing technology is essential for overcoming challenges in various trades being undertaken by students at Bartmore Technical College. Whether it’s in engineering, health sciences, or any other field, proficiency in digital tools and technologies is increasingly becoming a prerequisite for success….
