Suikie
A concept companion for a dual-medium school. Sports fixtures, the science fair, the school run: Suikie keeps the whole nest in the loop, in both languages.
concept
Like a friend. Not a form.
Short messages. Real memory. A voice note when it’s quicker. In Afrikaans or English, whichever you started in.

Say it once.
Suikie learns from every conversation and never asks twice. A few of the things Suikie keeps track of:
- Afrikaans or English, per person
- The teams you follow
- Your lift club
- The science fair date
- Your questions, so you never ask twice
- Nothing a child shouldn’t share
The right nudge, at the right time.
Proactive, tuned to the family. Never spam, never at 6am.
School day heads-up
Uniform, sport kit, what’s on today. One message.
The weekly letter, in four lines
The newsletter, read for you. Tap for the full thing.
Fixtures and lifts
Time, venue, who’s driving. Oranges are your turn.
Rain plan, early closing, bus late
The things a parent needs to know now, not on Monday.
Playful on the outside. Thoughtful on the inside.
Our design approach to a school companion: the school leads, parents stay involved and children’s wellbeing comes first.
The school’s voice
School-approved sources only. Uncertain answers point people to a person who can help.
Parents in the loop
Age-appropriate access and parental consent are part of the learner experience.
Let children be children
No child-targeted advertising profiles. The companion supports real relationships with parents, friends and teachers.
This demonstration uses scripted answers, asks for no child’s details and does not connect to school systems.
Every school deserves its own Suikie.
Your mascot, your language, your community. Tell us about your school and we shape the character with you.
