The Tech Library
FREE resources are available to teachers, community groups and GEHE Study Hub students to engage children, young people and adults in learning, experimenting and exploring jobs of the future.

Educational resources are available off-site and on-site with The Hub room bookings and GEHE Study Hub use, all subject to equipment and tech availability and our operational policies. This service is offered across Wellington and East Gippsland Shires. Tech transport assistance may be available.
