Dear Parents:

I am delighted to share with you that this school year our class will be using Seesaw (http://seesaw.me), a secure online journal where students can document and reflect on what they are learning in the Nursery. We hope to keep you updated with newsletters, songsheets and snippets about the individual progress of your child. We can share them privately with you and other family members to view and comment on throughout the school year.

In order for your child to use Seesaw, the app needs your child’s name in order to be able to associate work like their photos, videos or voice recordings with their account. Seesaw only uses this information to provide the service and doesn’t advertise in Seesaw, create profiles of students, or share or sell your child’s personal information or journal content.  You can read more about their strong privacy promises here: https://web.seesaw.me/privacy.

Under an EU law called the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in order for your child to use Seesaw, the school must get your consent. For more information on GDPR, please visit https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/reform/rights-citizens.

I hope that your child will enjoy using Seesaw to document and share their learning this year.  Please complete the information below and submit this Google form so that your child can use Seesaw.
