Seesaw
At Tullygally Primary School we use Seesaw as a vital communication link for all the families and pupils of our school community.
Please download the Seesaw app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. The app is beneficial for all parents, guardians and grandparents, childminders etc. who need to keep up to date with school news.
Once downloaded you will receive:
- alerts and notifications
- updates on event information
- links to the school website
- access to school documents and letters
- access to homework and your child’s work they have completed on Seesaw
What can students and family members do in Seesaw?
Students add posts to their journals. Student posts showcase the creative projects they’ve been working on in the classroom. This could include photos, artwork, videos, activities, notes, projects they’ve created in other apps, and more!
Families getnotified when there are new posts in their student’s journal. They can view posts and add likes and comments. Connected family members can only see their own child’s learning.
