You're in good hands
With over 15 years of experience in school marketing and consultancy we have figured out a thing or two about schools and their digital requirements.
For the past 15+ years we've been delivering technological solutions for over 50 schools across Australia.
It's hard to squeeze that many years into a single page, but here are some of the things we've been working on and are still delivering every day.
Since 2004, our team has been working with Australian schools on marketing material, administration tools, communications and more.
We have built numerous websites out of which 8 have received marketing awards. One of our latest websites is St Vincent's College at Potts Point. It was launched in February 2019. We also built Knox Grammar School, Sydney Grammar School, Ravenswood and OLMC Parramatta to name a few.
We have built 8 powerful school portals. These are custom built intranets which are integrated with the schools' Active Directory (ADFS, Azure, Cloudwork) and provide access to staff, students and parents. Most are also integrated with school management systems, such as Maze, Edumate, Edval etc. and push and pull data between these systems and automate their existing processes and communications.
There are too many features to list them all here, but some include:
We have a purpose built communications tool which handles all bulk emailing for parents, staff and students, weekly news articles bundled into regular issues, beautifully designed news centre page and more.
Mailing lists are automatically synced with school management systems and contacts can be segmented by any number of attributes, such as year, sport, subjects etc.
We have a dedicated tool for managing weekly sport fixtures between schools and internally. Parents get SMS messages and emails when cancellations or change of venue happens. Our APIs enable display of these on websites and the ease of data entry makes setting up fixtures a breeze. Plus a lot more.
It seems that over the years we have managed to integrate everything with anything. No kidding. Mario is still figuring out how to get some data from a kitchen sink. Wish him luck!
We have an awesome team of professionals who love good food, charcoal BBQs, coffee squeezed at 12 psi and craft beer. For a serious description you can read bios below.

Egor lives and breathes React, Django, databases and all those things that fly over your head when you read about them.
