Sharing Year Group Contact Information
Dear Parents and Carers,
As part of our commitment to fostering a strong sense of community among parents, I would like to inform you about a very important opt-in process related to sharing contact information within your child’s SPA (Shore Parents’ Association) Year Group.
Accessing contact details of other parents in your child’s year group is facilitated through the Year Contacts button in Lampada. By default, your contact details, including your name, address, email, mobile, and home numbers, remain private and are not visible to other parents.
However, if you would like to connect with fellow parents, we encourage you to opt in by selecting at least one piece of information, particularly an active email address.
Specifically, if you wish to receive emails from your child’s SPA Year Group Representative, please ensure that you tick the ‘Email’ checkbox. This will ensure you receive important information from the SPA on Shore community initiatives and events. If you are already a Shore parent and not new to the School in 2025, then you may have already ‘opted in’, and if so, you do not need to take any action.
These emails will come from a dedicated email address for each Year’s Group Representative and will look like this: Classof20XX@shore.nsw.edu.au. The address reflects the year in which your child is anticipated to graduate from Shore.
In the future, if you update any of your contact details, such as email address, home, or mobile number, your preferences to share this information will reset. You will need to opt-in again.
I would like to emphasise that opting in or out of sharing your contact details does not impact communications directly from the School itself. Messages from the Headmaster and School newsletters will continue to be delivered to you as part of your enrolment terms and conditions.
For a step-by-step guide on viewing parent contact details or modifying your preferences, please refer to the screenshots, which can be found here. You can also follow these steps:
- Log into Lampada
- Select the Year Contacts icon on the Lampada homepage.
- Select your child’s name from the top-left dropdown list.
- Ensure you have checked the email box that appears in the ‘Share my contact details’ box.
For assistance or queries related to this specific process, please reach out to contactlists@shore.nsw.edu.au.
I appreciate your cooperation in helping us strengthen our Shore community. I wish you a wonderful and engaging School year ahead.
Warm regards,
Rev Dr Richard Wenden
Chair, Shore Parents’ Association
