Benefits & Features

Send Free GROUPED Alerts

Grouped Alerts mean that your school can send an alert to ie. only Year 2 or Class 2B instead of the whole school. Your alert will stay in the section called "Year 2" or "Class 2B". This makes it easy for parents to look up if they initially missed it. Also grouped alerts are important, after all, a parent with a child in Year 2, doesn't really care what's happening for Year 6.

​Messages have built-in language translation.
