Connecting eKool Calendar to Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, and Apple Calendar

You can subscribe to your eKool calendars – such as School Events or Staff Absences – and view them directly in your preferred calendar application. Once connected, your calendar updates automatically whenever new events are added in eKool.

What you need to know

• Each calendar in eKool has its own subscription link.
• The sync is one-way: information moves from eKool to your external calendar (no changes are written back to eKool).
• The sync link stays valid indefinitely unless you manually remove it from your calendar app.
• Supported calendars:
  • Google Calendar
  • Microsoft Outlook Calendar
  • Apple Calendar
