Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago – 16 March 2026 – A group of Tobago’s youngest learners got a hands-on introduction to the digital world this month, when the Digicel Tobago team invested TT$10,000 to bring tablets, robotics, and internet safety education to the Sunflower Early Childhood Centre in Bethesda, Plymouth.

Led by Experience Store Associate Cassandra Mortley, the team donated digital tablets, craft materials, stationery, and phonics games to the school, and organised a robotics fair facilitated by Tobago Information Technology Ltd. At the heart of the visit was a Safer Internet Tips (SIT) session tailored for young learners covering how to have fun online, be kind to others, and always include a trusted adult when going online.

Alongside Mortley, Digicel team members Evlyn Carrington, Aiesha Campbell, Delia Patrick, Jayl Rogers, Cameron Groome, and Fareesha Forde spent several hours with the children as they explored their new devices, and added to the excitement by sharing snacks, snow cones, and popcorn.

“The day was very interactive, and I feel the interaction will be a core memory for the children,” said the school’s founder Conique Pantin. “The students were so excited, and the teachers will be able to use the tech to help with learning and fine motor skills.”

The initiative was made possible through the Digicel Foundation’s Real Connections Campaign, which provided TT$60,000 in funding for staff teams to implement community projects of their choosing—a reflection of Digicel’s commitment to helping communities grow more connected, and to do so responsibly.
