When can I expect a reporting update on Hero?

Every term, teachers share two learning posts combined with curriculum information and potential next steps for your child. With time, it forms an online report designed to build year on year so that over time you will have access to written posts, images, video, work samples, and helpful resources all in one place.

Individualised learning posts on Hero are written to provide you with real-time reporting, providing parents and whānau with immediate insights into their child's progress, achievements, and classroom experiences, fostering greater communication and involvement in their learning journey. Below is a chart to show which learning posts to expect each term. These will be published on your child's learning pages:
