​​​​​​​​Parent/Teacher Communication & Parent Engagement

Parent/Teacher meetings are held twice each year, in Term 2 and Term 3, in the Resource Centre and the Auditorium. Parents are encouraged to contact teachers through emailing the relevant Head of Department. We strongly encourage parent involvement in their child's education.

School communication to parents/carers is sent via email, SMS and/or via mail. Please contact the office and provide us with your email address if you haven't provided us with one. It is important to keep the school informed of any changes to your contact details.

On the home page of the school's website, the 'Latest News' section contains important information and messages.

The school also has a Facebook page and an Instagram account

The school's event calendar is available on our website and is updated frequently to ensure the most current information is available.

Each month, we publish our school newsletter which is available on the school's website and will be emailed to parents who have self-subscribed. To receive the school newsletter by email, please subscribe online via https://yerongashs.schoolzineplus.com/subscribe.

Please note that you will need to re-subscribe via the same link if you change your email address at any time so you continue to receive our newsletters.

 

QParents Portal


The QParents website and mobile app provides an easier, more convenient way for parents to communicate with their school.

This new online channel helps parents save time by allowing them to access information about their school-age children via a secure, online portal.

Parents are able to log in to QParents via their computer or mobile device, to access a range of information about their child, including:

  • Report cards and assessment
  • Timetables and class times
  • Attendance records.
For more information:

SchoolZine

 

We are pleased and excited to inform you that we'll be producing a new eNewsletter with SchoolZine. The move to this new format will enable us to communicate with the school community across multiple channels. It will promote and enhance our engagement with parents, students and the wider community.

We believe you'll find the eNewsletter highly engaging, as it will provide us with a more efficient and effective means of connecting with you. The new format will allow the inclusion of video, photo galleries, online bookings, mobile app, feedback forms, calendars and so much more.

The newsletter also has a sponsorship section which provides a great opportunity for local businesses to engage with our parent community. If you would like to be a part of this, please contact Schoolzine.
