free_sign_piccieAt Forest Children’s Centre, we encourage the safe use of computers and the internet.

On our
courses and in our internet cafe, adults and children use many different programs regularly, but we realise that to buy some of this software for home computers can cost a great deal of money.

Below, we have listed some software that you can download for free. We provide these links but do not endorse the software and cannot be held responsible for any damages caused by it’s use.

software_icon Office Software

 

openoffice_logoAt Forest Children’s Centre, we use Microsoft Office programs regularly, but we realise that to buy such software for home computers costs many hundreds of pounds.

Fortunately, there is a free alternative called OpenOffice.org, that works just like the office programs at FCC.  OpenOffice.org contains a word processor, called "Writer" that works just like "Word", a presentation maker called "Impress" that works like "PowerPoint" and a spreadsheet program called "Calc" that works like "Excel".

To download OpenOffice.org, visit the website
