Seesaw is the app that is used from Toddler to Year 6 for teachers and other academic teams to communicate timely information, class newsletters, homework and other key messages directly to parents.
There is a Seesaw Class app which is downloaded and used by students, and a Seesaw Family app that is downloaded and used by parents. At the beginning of the academic year, your child’s class teacher will send home a letter including the QR code for downloading the relevant apps, and your individual code for joining your child’s class. Please make sure you download the Seesaw Family app to the parent device, and the Seesaw Class app to the child’s device.
