SZ app, Calendar and Communication
School Calendar/New Schoolzine Calendar App
We have several methods of advising parents of the upcoming activities at school, including SMS, email, Facebook and this website. Download the SZ app for easy access to everything you need to know.
The app includes links to call the school; report an absence; visit the website; look at Facebook and most importantly the calendar feature will be ‘live’ with events updated daily.
- Need to know when exams are scheduled for?
- Request to collect your child early for an appointment i.e. dentist.
- School Holidays and Term Dates?
- Excursions and Incursions planned (The electronic app also allows for further information to be shared with parents i.e. copy of the parent letter/permission form can be viewed).
The new style calendar will allow parents and families to have an overview of all the school activities your child may be invited to participate in.
We would like to encourage parents, students and staff to download the app and familiarise themselves with how this works. The calendar can be printed but to ensure you have the most up to date information, the real benefit would be in using the electronic calendar by installing the SZ app to your mobile.
