The Northside’s best kept secret lets loose online

March has seen the launch of the brand new online face of St Patrick’s College, Shorncliffe. Last year, the school decided they needed to have a website that reflected their values and the high quality of their education. So, Bluewire Media came in to take them through an internet strategy designed to discover the best way to do just this.

The new website’s “go live” date, St Patrick’s Day, was well publicised in the school’s frequent newsletter, so the launch was a busy day — the stats showed over 300 different people went on to check it out on the 17th alone!

The website is designed to provide prospective, current and ex- parents, staff and students information about the school’s facilities, activities, curriculum, enrolment process and community involvement. In particular, the site will showcase recent events at the school. St Patrick’s also plan to begin dispersing their weekly newsletter just through the website and do away with paper copies that get scrunched and lost in the bottom of school bags!
