It’s here! Calendar & Excursions, Hero’s major new feature, HAS OFFICIALLY ARRIVED!
Calendar & Excursions introduces a smarter and more connected way to plan, manage and communicate every event that happens beyond the classroom - all within Hero.
- A unified school calendar: Excursions, events, and daily activities brought together in one clear, shared view for staff and caregivers.
- Safety and permissions you can trust: A built-in risk assessment process and digital caregiver permissions help keep students safe and reduce admin load.
- Smarter communication: Send timely, targeted reminders to the right caregivers – improving engagement without overwhelming families.
- Caregiver-friendly access: Parents gain absolute clarity and can easily see what matters for their child, when they need it – even across multiple Hero schools.
- Enable Seamless Payments: To get the most out of Calendar & Excursions, we recommend that schools enable caregiver finance viewing in your Finance Options. This allows caregivers to seamlessly make secure, online payments for excursions as they are created.
