At St Joseph’s Lower Primary School, we understand that clear and consistent communication between school and home is essential to your child’s success and development. While we welcome phone calls and emails, our primary communication platform is Seesaw, which provides a seamless way for parents to stay informed and engaged with their child’s learning journey.

Upon joining the school, all parents will receive a QR code or link to connect to Seesaw. This platform allows us to send group messages to families and provides a secure way for parents to communicate privately with their child’s class teacher, head of year, or other staff members.

Your Connection to their Education

In addition to messages, Seesaw offers a unique window into your child’s school life. Teachers post videos and photos of classroom activities, showcasing the children’s learning and achievements. Watching these videos together as a family is a wonderful way to reinforce your child’s learning at home. You can discuss the activities, ask your child about what they enjoyed, and explore what they learned in greater detail. These conversations are valuable for strengthening both your child’s understanding and your connection to their education.

Strong Partnership Between Home and School

We also operate a closed Facebook page for parents, which is used to share reminders and celebrate school achievements. To join, simply click on the link provided and request access. Please ensure you answer the membership questions, as incomplete requests will not be approved.

We encourage all families to engage actively with Seesaw and our Facebook page, ensuring a strong partnership between home and school that supports every child’s growth and success. If you have any questions about accessing or using these platforms, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we are here to help!
