Primary Parent Planner

Manly Vale Public School is pleased to introduce an innovative and convenient way for you to organise and plan both classroom and community events. We now have available for you a new smart phone application called Primary Parent Planner which allows you to download all important class and whole school dates to your smartphone, synchronise them to your calendar and receive regular alerts before they each event. This works in conjunction with our existing {portal / intranet}. Additionally Primary Parent Planner allows us to send messages to your smartphone regarding any important information.

We encourage you to take advantage of this product. If you have an iPhone, iPad or iTouch simply go to Apple App Store or if you have an Android device visit the Google Play Store and follow the prompts. It is simple, easy to use and will help schools and parents develop a closer working relationship. To download the app and view the school and courses it is free. Full access and use of the app is $1.99 (Aust/US/Canada), £1.49 (UK) and $2.59 (NZ)

Differences between Apple & Android Functionality

It is important to note also there are some differences between Apple and Android devices. The Apple version will sync straight to the calendar on your iphone/ipad. However, the early Android platform does not allow this functionality and so on Android phones the app will sync to a gmail account which can in turn sync to your phone calendar and send alerts.

There is also a difference in the alert function between Apple and Android. On the Apple version alerts and notifications from the app automatically appear on your phone. With the Android version alerts always come from the calendar but alerts and notifications from the app will only appear if the app is open or running in the background. All messages are stored on the Android devices for two weeks under "Notices" in the app.
