25.01.2022 MissingSchool works so that no child is left behind. Through our See-Be robot service, seriously sick kids can get back to their classrooms - they can dial in from their hospital beds and homes and be part of their lessons with their classmates. They can see and hear their teachers, and be seen and heard themselves. Your donation can truly make a difference in the lives of sick kids. While they're fighting for their lives, you can help sick kids stay connected to support their mental health and wellbeing. It will be a gift they'll never forget.

23.01.2022 We work with schools around the country to enable continuous, two-way connection between seriously sick kids and their classrooms when they can’t attend using our See-Be robot service. Do you know a seriously sick kid who could benefit from our program? Get in touch with us https://www.missingschool.org.au/page/80/telepresence

17.01.2022 MissingSchool works closely with parents and schools to set up our See-Be robot service in the classroom. With See-Be in place, seriously sick kids can be seen and heard in the classroom. We help kids like Lachlan, Year 2, stay connected when he can't attend school. This is what MissingSchool is all about - connecting home, school and the health system, so that seriously sick kids don’t fall through the cracks.

08.01.2022 Schools, hospital schools, and education systems around Australia are working with MissingSchool’s See-Be Robot service. Together we are harnessing the power of telepresence robots to connect students with serious illness with their learning, teachers, and peers when they miss school.

04.01.2022 Vira feels proud to be part of a community that puts inclusion into practice for sick kids missing school. As MissingSchool's Community Manager, Vira speak with the parents, educators and health workers who've said "yes" to giving new technology a go for their child, student or patient. It's the small, yet profound parts of usual life that are missed for these kids, and the simple act of turning on a robot, and remembering there's a real person on the other end of the screen, can have a remarkable impact in making sick kids feel seen, heard and included.

04.01.2022 Our warmest thoughts and joyful wishes to all of you for 2021.

03.01.2022 Connection with their schools, friends and teachers keeps them up-to-date socially and academically. Sick kids no longer feel they are missing out or that they've been forgotten. The See-Be robot service is about the joy of being connected, learning with your friends and belonging.

02.01.2022 MissingSchool's See-Be robot service initiative is working with NSW public schools to help kids with serious illness get back to the classroom.

01.01.2022 Without the support and continuous connection of their community, sick kids feel isolated and forgotten. This is why connection is so important - it reminds them that there is so much more than their illness and it encourages them to remain positively engaged in all aspects of their present and future.
