Seesaw is a digital  learning platform used across the school. 

Seesaw is a simple way for teachers and students to record and share what is happening in the classroom. Teachers  will share student work, photographs, videos, notes and announcements. Families can see student work, comment, communicate with their child's teacher and view announcements through the family app.

The Seesaw family app is compatible on iOS and Android and you can also access Seesaw via the internet. Your child's teacher will give you a code or send you an email to gain access.
