Welcome to ConnectEd@ Brightonps, our new school blog.
On ConnectEd @Brightonps , you’ll hear directly from school leaders, staff, students and our parent community on current topics. There will be a weekly post from Leadership and regular sharing including classroom activities, school programs and other events. ConnectEd @ Brightonps replaces our fortnightly newsletter and is now the ‘go-to’ place for all current information about what is happening in our school community.
We are always looking to improve the way we communicate to families and friends. Through the use of social media, communication can flow both ways – giving our wider community opportunities to interact with and share in the learning that is happening at Brighton Primary School.
We are now using four digital platforms to keep our community informed: our blog, ConnectEd @ Brightonps is for up-to-date news and information about current events and information relevant to our community; our Facebook page,BrightonPrimary School https://www.facebook.com/brightonprimarysa, is used mainly to share the fun and delightful events that we engage in; our web page, https://brightonps.sa.edu.au/ continues to be the formal face of the school, containing static information about the school community such as our programs and policies and information about the CDE and OSHC, which will be reviewed annually; and finally, all our classes use the Seesaw app to communicate class-specific information directly to families.
