By swapping out the parts we can combine two broken machines to make a working device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When they&#8217;re finished being repaired by the students in the club devices go straight to the IT manager, Chris, to either re-enroll in the school system or as a spare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In exchange the student that fixed the computer receives a $5 canteen voucher.&nbsp;If it was a complex job, we get 2 vouchers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-57b1c35f59b5f19de05c282b5da35223\">Riley currently manages our site.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Propose a Club Activity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Just fill in the form below.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wpforms-container wpforms-container-full wpforms-block wpforms-block-ae952a7d-36f6-4b8a-a76a-e4af5fe770ef wpforms-render-modern\" id=\"wpforms-2026\"><form id=\"wpforms-form-2026\" class=\"wpforms-validate wpforms-form wpforms-ajax-form\" data-formid=\"2026\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"multipart\/form-data\" action=\"\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1908\" data-token=\"a535096a273e4f4aea4013f6b0e31bda\" data-token-time=\"1776425344\"><noscript class=\"wpforms-error-noscript\">Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.<\/noscript><div id=\"wpforms-error-noscript\" style=\"display: none;\">Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.<\/div><div class=\"wpforms-field-container\">\t\t<div id=\"wpforms-2026-field_2-container\"\n\t\t\tclass=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-text\"\n\t\t\tdata-field-type=\"text\"\n\t\t\tdata-field-id=\"2\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t<label class=\"wpforms-field-label\" for=\"wpforms-2026-field_2\" >would opportunities activities<\/label>\n\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" id=\"wpforms-2026-field_2\" class=\"wpforms-field-medium\" name=\"wpforms[fields][2]\" >\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"wpforms-2026-field_1-container\" class=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-name\" data-field-id=\"1\"><fieldset><legend class=\"wpforms-field-label\">Name <span class=\"wpforms-required-label\" aria-hidden=\"true\">*<\/span><\/legend><div class=\"wpforms-field-row wpforms-field-medium\"><div class=\"wpforms-field-row-block wpforms-first wpforms-one-half\"><input type=\"text\" id=\"wpforms-2026-field_1\" class=\"wpforms-field-name-first wpforms-field-required\" name=\"wpforms[fields][1][first]\" aria-errormessage=\"wpforms-2026-field_1-error\" required><label for=\"wpforms-2026-field_1\" class=\"wpforms-field-sublabel after\">First<\/label><\/div><div class=\"wpforms-field-row-block wpforms-one-half\"><input type=\"text\" id=\"wpforms-2026-field_1-last\" class=\"wpforms-field-name-last wpforms-field-required\" name=\"wpforms[fields][1][last]\" aria-errormessage=\"wpforms-2026-field_1-last-error\" required><label for=\"wpforms-2026-field_1-last\" class=\"wpforms-field-sublabel after\">Last<\/label><\/div><\/div><\/fieldset><\/div><div id=\"wpforms-2026-field_8-container\" class=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-email\" data-field-id=\"8\"><label class=\"wpforms-field-label\" for=\"wpforms-2026-field_8\">Email <span class=\"wpforms-required-label\" aria-hidden=\"true\">*<\/span><\/label><input type=\"email\" id=\"wpforms-2026-field_8\" class=\"wpforms-field-medium wpforms-field-required\" name=\"wpforms[fields][8]\" spellcheck=\"false\" aria-errormessage=\"wpforms-2026-field_8-error\" required><\/div><div id=\"wpforms-2026-field_7-container\" class=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-textarea\" data-field-id=\"7\"><label class=\"wpforms-field-label\" for=\"wpforms-2026-field_7\">What kind of activities or opportunities would you like to be provided by our club?
