Internet Access for students who do not have Internet at Home

This is a copy of Tamsin's email:


Hi everyone,

This is the link for our families to register for a wireless modem if they don't have internet and meet requirements. More details below.

Ngā mihi,
Tamsin

"Skinny Jump will be available to a wider range of people who find that cost is a barrier to having a broadband connection at home – including families with school aged children, job seekers, senior citizens, refugees, new migrants, people with disabilities and people living in social housing.

The service is provided for $5 for 30GB of data (with the option to renew up to five times a month) and comes with a free Wireless Broadband modem. It is entirely prepaid, so there are no long-term contracts or credit checks needed, and all it takes to get set up is registering through a partner and plugging in the modem.

While New Zealand is in Covid-19 lock-down, we are offering a remote self-service option.  If you would like a Jump connection, click on the orange icon to the right and submit a completed form.  We will courier a Jump modem and set-up how-to guide to your home."

    If staff could email this out to any students whanau that they know do not have WiFi access this would be first starting point.
