Summary
The Daily Email Digest is your simple, time-saving way to stay on top of what’s happening in Orah. Instead of jumping into the platform multiple times a day, you’ll receive one tidy email summarising the latest activity feed posts and behaviour/pastoral notes. It’s a quick read that helps you stay informed and ready to act—whether you’re at your desk or catching up on the go.

These settings are available on the desktop version of Orah and can’t be set up in the iOS app. If you can’t see the option, your permissions may need to be updated by an administrator.
