Nativity’s New Website
Nativity has a new website that will better serve the needs of our school and the wider community. Our new website is a responsive website that will adapt and look at its best on any device, be it a desktop, laptop, tablet or mobile phone.
We would encourage you to explore the website for yourself, but first we\’d like to highlight a few important features.
Nativity News
Our new website design made us rethink the way we convey information as a school. Information is more relevant and important if it is conveyed in real time rather than waiting for a fortnightly school Newsletter cycle. Our new \”Nativity News\” feed (as pictured below) will highlight current Nativity News to people visiting our website. Parents will be notified once a day via email at 5pm, only if there has been new content posted.

Upcoming Events
Our \”Upcoming Events\” (as pictured below) section will highlight any upcoming events to our community. Clicking on the event will provide you with information about the event including a map of the location and the ability to click on a button and save the date automatically to your calendar on your mobile phone or other devices.
