Year 7 2025
If you purchase the device through the JB HiFi parent portal, the device you purchase will be delivered to your home. The device will be onboarded to the Hills Grammar network during the Orientation Taster Day as guided by the ICT Team to ensure all applications provided by the School are installed and working, the device will connect to the managed network and can access all required resources provided by the School.
We strongly encourage purchasing your device through the BYOD portal, for numerous reasons;
-
Education pricing has been negotiated with selected vendors and JB HiFi, which will ensure value for money.
- When purchasing through the portal, you have the opportunity to purchase Accidental Damage Protection (ADP), which includes a 3 year extended warranty on the device. ADP is not available through retail sales channels.
Where laptop is purchased through the BYOD portal, the ICT Team are able to provide a concierge service for students with laptops requiring service. The team provide a loan device to the student, whilst managing the warranty claim with the vendors/ JB HiFi on your behalf. This concierge service effectively eliminates any impact to learning while the device is being repaired.
If you purchase a device outside the Hills Grammar BYOD portal, please ensure your child brings this to the Orientation Taster Day in November.
Please don't hesitate Adam Wollins, the Director of ICT at Hills Grammar should you have any questions. Adam can be reached via email at adam.wollins@hillsgrammar.nsw.edu.au
