Positive feedback from the community from the first day it was live!
We've had positive feedback from the community from the first day it was live. They enjoy the clear presentation because it isn't cluttered like some sites. The tabs are clearly shown and easy to use. They now feel more connected with the school.
Families are enjoying sitting down with their children at home and discussing the latest sports' photos or events on the calendar.
We got outstanding support especially in the encouragement given to get our site online. All requests for changes or help to rectify errors made by the administrator have been dealt with in a timely way by support staff.
The ease of uploading files and photos onto the site has been a feature for an administrator who is too busy to spend time working through complicated sytems to upload information. The excellent menu descriptors have made it easy to find the page to edit or upload onto.
Keeping our site up to date is very easy - getting quicker at it as i develop my skill level.
Don't mind the cost when there is so much support available whenever needed.
We've found the video tutorials excellent because I find these easier than following word instructions.
Matakana School
We Love our new KiwiSchool Website!
The feedback we've received has been really fantastic! It really helps us to keep our school community informed of what's happening at Matakana School.
From an administrator point of view, it's just so easy to use e.g. amending pages, adding new events at the click of a button.
I really like the Noticeboard on our front of page. Being able to change our banner photos is great . I've really appreciated Paul and his team's support and patience during this time and their quick response to all my emails. Thanks KiwisSchools,

Rewa Rewa School
Very impressed with how easy it is to maintain...
My favorite features are the consistent layout and navigation across all of the pages, the scrolling banner photos which can be updated by the school when required, the Absence Form and the Newsletter email Sign-up
We're all very impressed with how easy it is to maintain the content of the site. Teachers like the fact that they can draft a piece of content and then have the principal QA it before it gets published.
I have used the online tutorials to find out how to add a video to the site. The video-based tutorial was very well done and allowed me to get the job done without any problems.
We think KiwiSchools is great value for money. The amount of time administering the content on the old website (pure HTML based) was a lot and no-one (except me) who has some HTML skills was able to change content. Now all the users loaded have the ability to change content at their leisure.
The experience overall has been very positive. Dealing initially with Paul when deciding whether KiwiSchools was the right solution for Rewa Rewa (given our limited budget) was very pleasant and there was plenty of emails and good timely responses when queries were raised. After sales support from Sheree and Rosemary has also been good as they follow up my outstanding issues and queries.

We have had a lot of positive comments from our school community...
We have had a lot of positive comments from our school community since upgrading our website.
Our favorite features are the changing photos at the top, how the colours reflect our school, how we were able to put the information on how we wanted it to be presented, and the Intranet for logged-in staff only
I used the online tutorials to become familiar with updating the site. They were easy to understand and if you forget how to do something you can refer back to them at any stage.
The team at KiwiSchools have been very supportive. Regular phone calls from them checking if everything is OK. Able to assist via phone/email if needed assistance at any stage.
Sunnybrae Normal School
So easy to update...
I really like The flexibility of use – it is so easy to update, including updating and updating information to keep it current. The newsletter is in a good format and sign-up is easy to do.
It is easy for parents to find the things they need, like the noticeboard – it highlights important things that are happening.
This was very good value for us – the new platform is a lot more modern and easy to use.
Paul did great training and the follow up calls from the team were really supportive with good response from the technical team.
Wilson School
The updating and administration is a breeze...
One of our favourite features is that we can add video content - other features give us a more flexible site that will grow in time with our school. The updating and administration is a breeze. All very straightforward. It’s as easy as using email or word docs.
I have used the on line tutorials and they can be a real help to get started . I think our staff will really benefit from this feature when they begin to add more content. We have received positive comments already about our site and we have only just gone ‘live’.
The KiwiSchools team were great - excellent, always a prompt response with any questions and good solutions are advised. We'd like to thank Paul and his team for a job well done. The rest is down to us.

Quick to respond...

I feel that KiwiSchools has been quick to respond to my queries and have assisted in areas of difficulty.
I also really like the galleries and how user friendly they are. The updating and administration of the site is very quick and easy to update. The tabs and editing process are straightforward.
Churchill Park School
The whole team at Kiwischools have been extremely patient...
The whole team at Kiwischools have been extremely patient, efficient and supportive. The team respond extremely quickly to any queries or requests we had.
I love the ease in which we can add photos and galleries to the website. We love the way in which we can copy and paste from Word and the features like blogging that enable to connect more easily with our school community.
Our upgrade was great value for money
We are beginning to get great feedback and compliments from the past and present school community. The parents are loving the ability to look back on past newsletters, the events calendar with upcoming events in the side bar and the general LOOK of the site.
Waitakere College
Really like the noticeboard, blogs and videos...
Since the upgrade, it's great having more control - very easy to update. We really like the noticeboard, blogs and videos.
The tutorials are easy to follow, and we find KiwiSchools absolutely more value than the money we give you!
Paul is absolutely wonderful and ever so helpful to deal with, extremely patient.
Opaki School
The team have helped us with every teeny question
We like the layout and the way it is easy to navigate your way around the site, the easier way of uploading photos, the way class pages are now blogs and that they just get added to rather than being completely replaced - so a picture of what has happened during the year can be built up.
I think up grading has been well worth it. The best thing about using KiwiSchools is that the web site is standard and many people can enter info with it all looking the same. If someone leaves then it is easy for others to carry on with the web site up dating rather than having your own site hosted independently – in this case the one person with the knowledge would leave and then the school would be high and dry.
The team have helped us with every teeny question. The response time has been quick. There is always someone on the phone to ask as well. Cheers thanks so much!!
Greenhithe School
Our new site is bright and vibrant!
You need a decent website these days; people look at and are on it all the time!
Our new site is bright and vibrant & people have been giving our new site very favorable comments. It's also very user friendly so we can update it regularly and because of that people look at it regular and we get positive feedback.
The back-up support from KiwiSchools is important, too.

Amazing feedback from the school community….within a couple of days we have had a number of positive comments left on our blog

Weymouth Intermediate School
Extremely happy...
Extremely happy with the website.
We love our Front Page, the ease of access and just how easy it is to maintain
Teachers love to create their own blog & alert their students. They get really excited about it!
I like how I put forward suggestions for the site and you look at it constructively and tell me straight up if will work or not!
Matangi School
The “Information” area is great...
I really like how the photos change up the top of the page. It is also great having a separate pictures and videos areas. (The last website only had room for one photo album)
The “information” area is great because I am able to add information about important events, and this information can be as in-depth as required.
I found updating the site easy before the upgrade, and it is just as easy after the upgrade (even with the extra features).
