Yes there is, but it's not the right way.
You have to switch to libre office because the security support for
oldstable will stop after a year after the new release.
And the security support of the browsers in oldstable is allready
stopped. Ahum...

Wheezy is already released, maybe I understand something wrong?
Upgrades to new versions are not automatically, when you have the name
of the release in your sources.list. So don't use "stable" but e.g.
"wheezy".

You need to upgrade in the coming time.
Listen good to your users about the problems they have with it, and find
solutions for them. Do it slow, and with attention. Maybe you can
upgrade one PC first, so they can show what the problem is.
But when they come with nonsense be hard to them...
With regards,
