"ZapitSMS has allowed us to send emergency messages to all families with mobiles very quickly and efficiently. This has instilled confidence in the School Leadership team and the parents who rely on an accurate, efficient service in times of emergency." Queensland - Principal
"We have used ZapitSMS to advise parents of estimated return time of school excursions and reminders to return permission forms, fundraising forms etc. The best part is the immediate response from so many parents. The time saving is amazing and the reduced use of paper is certainly money saving. Its uses are only limited by the schools imagination." Victoria - School Business Manager
"I have been utilizing ZapitSMS for reminders and camps and also to notify parents about head lice. I love it!" Victoria - School Business Manager
