SIMS Parent
The SIMS Parent app is a convenient and accessible way in which we can communicate with parents on many aspects of school life. It is easy to use and is accessible from a smart phone, tablet or PC.
SIMS Parent is also used for accessing data about your child (e.g. attendance data). The Data Collection area allows you to submit any changes to the basic data we hold, and our intention is to open up the Assessment area soon so that this information can also be accessed by parents. If we have any important messages to send to parents, it will be via SIMS Parent. We are taking positive steps to make Newton Farm a paperless school, therefore our focus is to fully engage with parents on this platform.
Here is a link to a useful tutorial covering registering and downloading the app.
ParentPay
This is now the main payment method used at school. Newton Farm became cash-less from September 2019. Please ensure you have set up the account for your child(ren) and please be aware that all trips, lunches, sporting events, etc... will be payable by ParentPay only.
