Customer Profile: St Josephs Primary, Elsternwick

St Joseph’s is a small Catholic Primary School in Elsternwick Victoria. 

As one of our foundation customers since November 2013, St Joseph’s has helped shape the CareMonkey system we provide today, and will continue to help us guide and improve this system for future applications. 

Modules used: 

• emergency contacts and student care profiles

• communications tools including email and sms

• online permissions forms

• excursions

We spoke with Principal, Simon Collis about the system. 

1.    What do and your team like most about the system?

Emailing and Permission Slips

2.    What has been the biggest benefit in using CareMonkey? 

Timesaving, parent control, reduced paperwork, convenience, permission slips.

Quick identification of student profile concerns.

Admin staff really embraced this program. This was made easier with the in-house PD visit.

3.    Do your teachers use the CareMonkey App and have they found it helpful, particularly when on excursions?

Our teachers are okay with the app.  We simply need to change a habit

4.    How has it been received by the parent group? 

Parents love it! They simply respond within 24 hours rather than admin staff chasing up forms. It is being very well received, but we did a particularly good sell via newsletters and other communications.

Thanks St Josephs!  We are thrilled to you on board and encourage you to keep providing feedback and insights that help us improve the system.
