Multi-award nominations for MY:24 app

In the 2015 iKids Awards, MY:24 is a finalist for ‘Best Learning App (Smartphone)’ for Kids (6 and up).

MY:24 also a finalist in the 2015 AIMIA Awards, the longest running and most prestigious Awards in Australia's Digital Industry.

MY:24 is in the running for ‘Best Smartphone or Tablet Application' in both the ‘Learning and Education’ and ‘Entertainment and Media’ categories.

All of this follows the app's recent win at the 2014 eLearning Awards where it received the 'Community Sector Award'.

MY:24 was developed by Sandpit and is available for iOS devices from the App Store. More information about the app is available on the program page.
