If the event is repeated (after school club, for example) select either Daily, Weekly or Monthly  from the drop down menu and set a date for the repeat to end. For detailed instructions on how to set up and edit a repeating event, please click here.

Web link Add a clickable link to any web page.

If the event is off-site it is possible to add a Map.

• Check the box to display on event page
• Enter location in to the field below and click SEARCH

Once saved, it is possible to send a linked message (push notification) about this event. Click the button that appears now below the map. Parents receiving a linked message will be able to click the notification pane and be taken directly to an event on the app. This is great for ensuring parents attention is drawn to specific events in the school calendar.
