Hello,
I am trying to get help with about 4 high school children in my Gifted
and Talented Group, aged about13 14 to get them into the linux scene.
Is there anyone out there who is prpared to spend some time with them
to teach them about Linux?
Isee that we would probably come to Chch for a session say from 11 am
to 2 pm and they would get as much instuction as they could in that
time. As we live in the Oxford area we would need to come during the
school day if that is possible.
We are looking for a donation of time and expertise to get tem started
as we do not have any money in our budget.
If you are able to help I can be contacted on 03 312 8010 or at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I would appreciate hearing from anyone who can help.
Thanking you in anticipation

Just to write out the invite made to Errol at the Freenix workshop May
4th, where two Ubuntu disk sets were supplied..
We are set up with an online demo Ubuntu/FreeBSD box to gather around in
the Green Room at 16 Bedford Row, Chch, which is open 10am-2pm Mon-Sat.
This machine is accessible with free tuition during the hours you
mention, any Wednesday you like or other days by arrangement. The Green
Party is listed in the phone book, should you wish to phone ahead.
Another option would be for a group of us to bring laptops & projector
out to you, so that parents and teachers might see the software
demonstration too.
Regards,
