Very proud of this metric! Well done to to a heroic community.

[Hero @heroforschools]

Celebrating growth, one post at a time!

Together, schools created and shared over 3.8 million learning posts in Hero across 2025. Every post captures the moments and milestones – photos, videos, and reflections – that tell the story of each learner’s journey through school. When shared with caregivers, those classroom moments travel home too, keeping families connected. A heroic effort by our schools! ⚡

[Hero @heroforschools]

Middle Harbour Public School wanted a more connected approach – one that unified teaching, learning, leadership, and caregiver partnerships.
With Hero, they replaced scattered systems with a single, purpose-built platform designed to support:
📚 Curriculum planning and implementation
📊 Data insights
📣 Communication
✅ Cohesion, clarity, and confidence

Principal Laura Barry calls it “transformational.”

As technology rapidly evolves, privacy is a topic that will be front and centre around board tables across NZ.
At @heroforschools we have prioritised privacy from day one and continue to invest in staying ahead of the curve to protect schools’ data.
#EdTech #PrivacyFirst

[Hero @heroforschools]

It’s Privacy Week 2025, and the theme “Privacy on Purpose” couldn’t align more perfectly with our heroic values.

As the first SMS in NZ to attain the Safer Technologies for Schools (ST4S) badge (held since 2021), we’ve proactively worked to uphold best practice, with software that safeguards our users’ personal data 🔒

It’s no secret that our world revolves around data – our dedicated webpage offers a central, transparent space for all Hero Privacy & Security related info. Check it out: https://t.co/Z3siNEWoqN

Tech is accelerating at an extraordinary pace & the ed gap is widening!
“You can no longer make Ss do the reading or the writing… What’s left? Only this: give them work they want to do… help them want to do it.What, again, is education? The non-coercive rearranging of desire.”

[The New Yorker @NewYorker]

A Princeton professor had his students complete an assignment using A.I. It became “the most profound experience” in his teaching career. https://t.co/eXM9h9YxtT

[Aimie Sibson @Aimiesibson]

@jennyluca Excellent share, thank you!

[Aimie Sibson @Aimiesibson]

Hearing how Vineyard PS used @heroforschools to strengthen connections between home & school & lift their School Excellence Plan (SEP) is incredibly rewarding. Real-time visibility around learning, shared ownership & truly connected families - this is why we built Hero @sibsonp

[Hero @heroforschools]

➡️ New on the Hero Blog: https://t.co/KimCfDcs4V

“Our standards of what we want to achieve now are so high because of the work that we've done with Hero.”

With a mission to close the communication gap between home & school, Vineyard PS embarked on a heroic journey of doing just that, and more – they’re now ‘excelling’ across all areas of their School Excellence Plan ⚡

Hear from Kerry De Jager (relieving Principal) and Zoe Fraser (Deputy Principal), as they unpack their ‘why’, the considerations behind choosing Hero, the successes, and everything in between!

Back to my home town this week- Ashburton! 🙌It was fantastic to reconnect and be part of some really insightful discussions around how schools are preparing to report the new curriculum via @heroforschools Thanks to Cath, Claire and the team at St Joseph’s School for hosting!💕
