Communication: We communicate with our families via HERO, Skool Loop and the Springdale School Parents Facebook page, text messages and email. It is important families sign up for HERO (download the app) as this is where all our notices, complete with reply facility, can be found.

Concerns: In the first instance please make initial contact with your child's classroom teacher and arrange a suitable time to discuss your concern. If the issue is not resolved then please contact the school office to arrange a suitable time to meet with the principal. Please refer to the relevant two documents below.
