Nicola Fairbrass, aged 10, of Reefton, tries a program held by her tutor, Mr John Worthington, at a computer camp at Canterbury University yesterday. Eighty-five children from Bluff to Levin are attending the camp, which runs all this week. The children spend four hours a day learning about computers and the rest enjoying activities such as swimming, skating and tramping. The enrolments are a record for the organisers, Micro Age Computer Camps, who have held the camps in Christchurch since August, 1983. It is running simultaneously with a similar computer camp in Auckland.
