Learning Journey’s are a celebration of your child’s achievements and interests during their time at St Mary’s Nursery
through observations and photographs.
In a world of increasing technology and busy lives, many parents appear
to prefer the flexibility of accessing information about their child on a
device at their convenience. (Via email)
The ‘2simple parent share’ has been a huge success. When we
first introduced ‘parent share’ we were sending observations every 2-4 weeks.
After listening to feedback from parents we are now emailing
observations weekly but please remember to bear in mind the following:
-The number of observations depend on how many
sessions your child attends each week.
-Absences from nursery will affect the amount
of observations your child will have.
-Key
workers may not see your child complete some tasks; therefore your
contributions/observations are invaluable.
An upfront payment of £3.00 is required if you
would like a hard copy (in black and white) of your child’s learning journal
(We will also send it electronically).
Your child’s keyworker will print off the
observations termly only when
payment has been received.
Another positive to ‘parent share’ is you
can send images and comments/observations of your child. These contribute to our record of your
child’s developmental achievements.
Examples
of what you can send are:
·
Your child reaching a milestone – eg walking
·
A family day out - eg trip to the park
·
A daily routine – eg story before bed
·
A special event – eg family wedding
·
Your child’s special interests – eg favourite
song/game/cartoon character
Please speak
to Lisa, Steph or Adeema if you are having trouble accessing your child’s
observations.
