Digital Technologies Festival: Fast Team Based Action. Creative.
Massive fun packed into two hectic hours.
Sam
Digifest resumes after six years of Christchurch recovery. Expanded for 2017, this challenging team-based competition is a celebration of learning and digital tools.
With Digital Technologies becoming part of the N.Z. curriculum in 2018, this is your chance to highlight its profile in your school.
Join schools from around Christchurch and further afield by simply registering a team in the appropriate age groups.
Projected Competition date is Term 3 with further details to be released soon… so get your teams geared up!
This year's theme is, "Welcome to the Dark Side… with a dash of hope." Each section will have its competition based around this exciting focus to encourage creativity.
