Technology

Marsden is one of the most innovative and technologically-advanced schools in New Zealand.

We know that students must be confident with the latest techniques and materials as they develop in the 21st century.

Our younger pupils accept computers as part of their learning, techniques such as PowerPoint and podcasting are everyday tools and the latest netbooks enhance their library research.

The Upper School uses hardware and software tools which include digital video and audio production, web design, game development, robotics and programming. We encourage our senior students to bring in digital devices to enhance their learning experience.

Because of our wide reach into technology, we give our students the chance to create innovative solutions to real world problems.

Our Learning Management System - Ultranet, allows students 24 hour access to school programmes and resources from anywhere in the world.

The subject is taught in three areas in the senior school: Design Technology, Food Technology and Digital Technology.
