Edulink One Platform Communication

We hope you are enjoying using our new Edulink One platform. We would like to remind you that you can use this platform to communicate with your child’s teacher and our front office staff. We will no longer be using Class Dojo going forward, so any communication sent via this app will not be seen by our staff.

If you have any issues with accessing Edulink One please refer to our letter sent on the 31st May or contact our IT department at itsupport@dess.org.

Year 6 Student's Rewards and Conduct Record: Parent Portal / iParent App

Please be advised that Year 6 students are receiving House Points (rewards) and C2 consequences. I encourage you to view these on the Parent Portal - see images as a guide.

Birthday Treats Guidelines

DESS guidelines request that parents and children do not bring in high sugar treats, such as cakes and doughnuts. Instead, birthday gift ideas can include pens, bookmarks, a class book, or a healthier food option such as a sandwich platter. Please speak to your child's class teacher if you are unsure.
