 Netsafe, our local Internet advisory agency, shares similar findings in its report entitled "New Zealand teens' digital profile : a factsheet". In 2017, "a third of NZ teens spend 4 or more hours online in an average day" and that "teens regard themselves as confident technology users". Most of the report corelates with our experiences here in the Mission Heights Schools, with students in both schools rating their usage of technology highly in both personal and school aspects of their lives.
