Summary
Digital photograph of Barry McGaw (ACER), George Proimos (student of PHSC), Senator John Button (Minister for Science), Lisa Williams (student of PHSC), Lisa Mainelli (student of PHSC), ??, Liddy Nevile and Princess Hill students at the official launch of the Sunrise Classroom at Melbourne Museum. The launch was due to take place in the courtyard at the Museum but due to bad weather the launch was relocated at the last minute to a church hall across the road.
These students from Princes Hill Secondary College and others were selected to participate in the exploratory computing classroom which ran from 1988-1989 at Melbourne Museum. This digital image forms part of the Sunrise Collection which includes educational robots, software and multimedia recordings of teachers and students exploring new possibilities with computer programming.
