Important notice re communicating with  class teachers

Dear Parents,

From now on we are going to be using our ALADDIN system as our main communication platform in relation to messages to and from teachers, including absences, school reports, Parent Teacher meeting times and school activities.

Class Dojo will not be used for communication any more.

It will be used in the classroom by some teachers for other purposes such as positive affirmation. Photos of class activities will be posted regularly on the school website.  We will use the school WhatsApp number to send class messages and other direct messages from the school office.  This is an effort to streamline communications which we hope will prove successful, with your support.  If you need to link up with or update your ALADDIN and need help, please contact Michele at the office.
