The helpful staff at Apple tell me that the Beaconhills Family Funded offer is open all the time.
Just pop into the store, tell them you are part of the Beaconhills Community (you may have to prove this) and they will help you with everything about iPads or MacBooks, including Apple IDs, protective covers and even personalised engraving.
There is also plenty of useful information on our BeLearning Lounge about suitable devices, cybersafety and the specific apps required by each year level at https://portal.beaconhills.vic.edu.au/belearning/learning-resources/.
