Located on the second floor of E-Block, the Educational Media Centre supports student learning through the use of information technologies (IT). The Centre provides direct support to students via Help desks (located in rooms A-136 and E-239), workshops on selected computer software packages, and one-to-one technical assistance.
The Centre maintains fully equipped state-of-the-art learning facilities and an IT infrastructure. The many computer labs are available for homework activities – when classes are not being held. But the Writing Lab on the second floor of the E Block, and the CTEC lab on the first floor of the F Block, are available to students throughout the entire school day.
All labs have Internet access and selected software that supports the teaching curriculum. The labs are located as follows:
A-Block: | A-104, A-110, A-116, A-132 & A-136 |
B-Block: | Library (PCs and Macs) Learning Centre (Macs and PCs on 2nd floor of library) Centre d’Aide Linguistic (2nd floor of library) |

Students are asked to respect the “Rules for Student Use of Computer Facilities” that are posted in each computer lab.
