Senior : Communications
There are many ways in which the School communicates with the members of its community, not the least of which is this website. We ask parents and other community members to take an active role in seeking out information. With so many activities on the agenda, there is a lot of information to share from many different groups.
Listed below are the main means of communication but if you're having trouble finding something, please contact Community Relations on (02) 9487 0449 or (02) 9487 0483.

The Knox Website

The Knox website is the best way to obtain the most up to date information from and about the School and it is recommended all members of the community consult it on a regular basis.
In the interests of student privacy and security, certain sections of the website require a username and password to gain access. These codes are provided to the new Senior School students in their 'starter packs' and are given to Prep School parents through the Prepside newsletter. If misplaced, students should visit the IT Help Desk at either the Prep or Senior School to have the codes resupplied.
Anyone requiring further information about access should contact the Webmaster in the Community Relations Office on (02) 9487 0489 or at website@knox.nsw.edu.au OKGA members requiring access should contact Alumni Secretary, Pamela Hitchcock, on (02) 9487 0419 or at hitchcockp@knox.nsw.edu.au |
