The Weekly Update is sent to families each Thursday evening, and is a great source of important information, news and upcoming events.
The Synergetic Portal is where parents can view and set-up their School Fee payments, view School Reports and book Parent/Teacher interviews, as well as elect to share their contact details with other families in their child’s year level cohort.
The Canvas Portal provides parents access to the School’s Learning Management System, where parents can view their child’s assignments, homework and grades.

Rollcall is the school’s bus management system and the portal allows parents to alter bookings, manage their children’s absences and set the notifications that they want to receive (eg. arrived at bus stop).
St John’s Grammar School provides all technological devices (tablets/laptops) for our students from the beginning of Reception through to the end of Year 9 – these are provided all inclusive of School Fees.
