Staying Connected with Compass and Canvas
At St John Paul II College, Compass is our central Student Information System, providing families with easy access to important school information and communication. Through Compass, parents and students can stay informed and engaged with:
✔ Whole school, cohort, and group daily announcements
✔ Class announcements
✔ Notifying the school of absences
✔ Timetable access
✔ School calendar updates
✔ Semester reports
✔ Excursion details
To ensure all families are confident using Compass, we are offering in-person drop-in support sessions.

Year 7, 11 and 12 Families: Tuesday 11th – from 4.15-5pm (Library entrance way prior to the Year 7 and Senior information evening)

Canvas
In addition, we are excited to introduce Canvas, our new Learning Management System, which is up and going! Canvas offers you an opportunity to stay connected with your child's education in ways that Moodle couldn’t offer. This week, we encourage you to explore the Canvas Parent App. It's a fantastic tool that allows you to monitor your child's assignments, grades, and course content right from your phone.
