They popped up on my facebook to teach me when I clicked learn more, I found them want to charge me to work for them. Of course I didn’t provide any card info. Someone wants to hire , won’t ask to get paid from employees. I found them a few days after trying to take $ 99 from my card. I never claimed that yo anyone. This is not my way. Read my reviews. This organization is hackers. They hacked my card info and want to bill me after. I’ll wire a review everywhere about them to uncover their way scam. If anyone responds from this app to explain anything different that what I say, please do and explain and solve this problem because I’m ganna take this scam to court if you don’t stop hilling me and trying to scam me ### 1/5 — Updated but now no school *2018-02-10, version 2.9.3* Can you try and get Berkeley public school in nsw to join you have kemblawarra basically useless for me ### 1/5 — Wrong link *2018-02-08, version 2.9.2* Something is very wrong when I download the Australian app and only get New Zealand area choices. Tried deleting and redownloading. Same problem. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Australian version has NZ regions *2018-02-07, version 2.9.2* Please fix this glitch ### 2/5 — Doesn’t come up with notifications in my phone! *2026-02-19, version 2025.5.8* Sadly even though the app is good it does not show any new notifications on my phone! So pretty useless when you try and keep up with all the news for the kids. ### 2/5 — No tagging to read later or calendar linking *2022-03-31, version 3.17.0* As a busy working mum of 3 I don’t always have time to read long messages and I need an option to be able to tag to go back and read later when I have more time. Also I do not like how it’s a one way communication tool. Don’t like how the school events do not automatically link to my calendar. ### 3/5 — Great *2024-05-27, version 3.27.1* From what I can see it looks very handy and useful to me. I am yet to explore all features so will update my review when I have a better understanding of the tool. ### 3/5 — Improves communication *2018-10-29* This is a great app to improve communication from the school. Getting notices on the app instead of relying on the child delivery system is fantastic. The problem I find is that, with a daughter at primary and a son at intermediate, I need to flick between two different schools all the time. If I'm on one school, I miss notifications from the other, and vice versa. ### 4/5 — Ratings *2025-06-05, version 3.33* Good way of communicating and keeping up with what is going on weekly/ term basis within Te Kura Kaupapa Māori O Nga Taonga Tuturu. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — School loop selwyn park school *2026-06-24, version 2026.1* Awesome app, good to be able to do everything all in one app. And you can see noticeds etc all on the app. Highly recommend ### 5/5 — Love Skool loop *2026-06-21, version 2026.1* Easy way to get updated ### 5/5 — Review *2026-01-28, version 2025.5.7* very nice ### 5/5 — Super *2025-11-21, version 2025.5.6* Timely updates and keeps Me in the loop ### 5/5 — Sharon-Maree *2025-11-19, version 2025.5.6* Holmes ### 5/5 — Ms *2025-11-17, version 2025.5.6* Like ### 5/5 — Marcia Tekeu *2025-09-10, version 2025.5.4* 5 ### 5/5 — Skool Loop *2025-08-17, version 2025.5.2* Great app. Helps keep us notified of everything at school. ### 5/5 — Infographic by R.C *2025-08-12, version 2025.4.1* This app needs to be controlled and updated by the school system regularly. I love the content features that I can submit permissions and record absence notes via the app. ### 5/5 — educa *2025-08-08, version 2025.4.1* having a busy schedyle the skool loop both my children completed thier Primary Years knowing that I can support them and have good conversations I am not to miss and catch up on. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
