[edit] Computer Facilities

The school has two ICT Labs equipped with modern computers. These computers are equipped with an electronic optical mouse and keyboard. There are many people using these ICT Labs for schoolwork and homework. The computers have USB slots in the front and back of which only the ones in the back work. The front slots do work, however, they tend to fry your USB disk. The two ICT Labs are quite different to each other as Lab 1 has Flatscreen monitors and Lab 2 has the old- fashioned monitors, still both of them look the same old- fashioned computers with Windows XP software.
