Our mission is to improve the communication between schools and parents. We are focused on making the communication process easier for both school staff and parents.With web development, design and software development backgrounds, we set out to create a unique system that makes it easier for schools to communicate efficiently and effectively. We regularly seek feedback from Principals, office staff and parents about School Enews. We aim to work with schools in a collabrative manner.
School Enews was founded in 2008. We built the technology from the ground up; creating a unique solution
for Australian schools. Development is ongoing with improvements being provided to schools free of charge. School Enews classifies itself as a "social enterprise".
