Brendon and the team at Spike@School are fantastic to work with. A school's website is often the first point of contact for new parents so it's vitally important to make a good impression. Spike@School keep working hard to ensure their designs reflect current design principles. Recently we refreshed our website and the team was full of helpful suggestions and were quick to respond to feedback. We are really happy with the new look!

After exploring several platforms for the refresh of our school website we chose Spike@School. I can't praise Nigel highly enough as he very patiently supported our elearning teacher and management team to set up. Nigel has been very generous with time and always available should 1:1 support be needed. We love the final design that was always open to change. We love Spike@School as it is fresh, easy to edit and change, user friendly for both administrators and families navigating the content. Very importantly, our website has the translation tool which makes the content very accessible for our very multi-cultural school where many families speak English as their second language and speak their first language at home. We also like that Nigel is very encouraging as we try new aspects of the website! Thank you Nigel - we look forward to continuing to work with you.

We have been using Spike@School's Online Newsletters for over a year now and am still loving them. What once took most of my day to produce the newsletter, now only takes a quarter of the time. No longer are we trying to squeeze articles into a 2 page document, we can now add as many photos, links and community notices as we want. The newsletter is also easily read on any device. We are so happy we made the change to Spike newsletters, it really has made such a difference.

Setting up our school website was a pleasure. My ideas and thoughts were listened to and the graphic designer added great new features. My questions are always answered quickly. Whenever I see a list of all Spike@School's clients I am always surprised because they make me I feel like I am the only one. Brendon and Nigel will do anything they can to help and are always friendly and pleasant to deal with.

Our website is looking amazing, I'm loving the new front page and the easy pages. I just shared with our teachers how to change their classroom pages to easy pages and they are loving the drag and drop layouts.

I have worked with Spike@school over the last few years at different schools I have led. The professional service I have received from Spike@School has been exceptional. Nigel and the team go above and beyond to cater to the needs and requests of their clients which is something I really appreciate. The system is easy to use and navigate, and extra training is always available if required. I have been most impressed with the websites we have created with Spike@School and I would highly recommend Spike@School to all other schools.

Spike@School designed our website. It has been very effective in enabling two way communication with our members. The site looks good, is very easy to navigate, and is exceptionally easy to manage. We could not be happier with Spike@School!

This website is brilliant. I have saved in excess of $3k because of the online form editor built into Spike@School. It took me 3 hours to teach myself and then design the form. It will save me many many hours of heartache etc... Absolutely superb!!!!!
Bevan Campbell
We are so proud of our school website. The entire process from initial conversations with the design team through to the finished product has been a great experience. They really listened to what was important to our school community and created a website that suits our needs perfectly. The ongoing technical support has meant staff feel confident to manage and manipulate the site and make use of its many features. Spike's platform has enabled us to have a unique site that can flex and change as needed to continually reflect our community. We feel our website is a great introduction to parents looking to understand more about who we are.

I absolutely love Spike's Online Newsletter function. It's not just efficient; it's a game-changer in how I handle our school newsletter. Now I just have a draft newsletter open on my desktop and as items are emailed, I upload them straight away, saving me hours each week. It's intuitive to use and looks amazing. Parents find it easy to navigate, and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. This function has truly streamlined our communication process.

Nigel and the Spike@School team have consistently demonstrated promptness, professionalism, and great assistance since the beginning of our collaboration on our school website. Their approach to website building has been superb, addressing our inquiries promptly and inviting our feedback at every step. The team actively listened to our requirements for the website, providing excellent design and guidance throughout. As a result, we are in the process of developing an engaging, vibrant, and modern website that not only looks professional but also effectively reflects the essence of our school. We eagerly anticipate sharing it with our community soon. Many thanks to Spike@School for turning the task of upgrading our school website into an enjoyable and straightforward experience

We selected SpikeatSchool to redesign our school website in 2019. I appreciated the way the designers worked with our ideas to positively create a site that we can now say proudly presents our school to the world. I enjoyed the process and found the designers at Spike@School to be helpful and patient through every communication. Spike@School have lots of examples of sites that they have created for other schools and we were able to look through all of these and choose those parts we liked that would also be good for us. I find our site easy to edit and use and I would recommend Spike@School to any school that wishes to revamp or create a quality website.
Tui McMillan
From the onset, Nigel and the team at Spike@School have been prompt, professional and extremely helpful. Their website building platform is logical and easy to use and any questions I have had at any stage of construction have been answered in a very timely manner. The team listened carefully to what we were looking for in a website, and with their design and guidance we have a fun, vibrant, and professional website we are so excited to share with our community. Thank you Spike@School for making upgrading our school's website an enjoyable experience.

I just wanted to pass on my thanks to Spike for the very seamless and painless process of updating our school website. From initial planning right through to going live you were very open to our ideas, and working with an interactive template made it really easy, not only for me but for the Board to see. I have had great feedback on our new website from not just our parents, but also our staff. I am more than happy to be a person to call if other schools are wanting references around the process.
