TLN Student: a new system to access wifi outside school

As you know, it has been difficult for some of your children to connect their Chromebook to the internet at home using the Tamaki Learning Network (TLN).

A new network, TLN Student, has been created to make things easier for everyone.  TLN Student has been set up on your child’s personal Chromebook - but only for your child’s school email account.   Your child does not need a password to access TLN Student on their own Chromebook.

We will try the new system today.  At home - after 3:00pm - your child will need to:

• Shut down their Chromebook and then turn it on again
• Log into their school Google account
• Select the wifi network TLN Student

If there are any problems, I will find out from your children!
