Whitelist school email addresses

PublishingPageContent

Important school correspondence is generally sent via email. 

Due to the filtering systems put in place by email and internet providers, important school emails are sometimes blocked or sent to junk or spam folders.

We recommend parents/guardians set up a whitelist or safe sender list of our commonly used school email addresses so that your email filtering system never blocks or sends those emails to junk or spam. 

Follow the instructions below to set up a 'whitelist' or 'safe sender' list to ensure you do not miss any further correspondence from Redcliffe State High School. 

Below are some important school domains to add:

  • redcliffeshs.eq.edu.au (domain)
  • eq.edu.au (domain)
  • compass.email (domain)
