Every Family is Important
Early development and learning takes place through relationships and particularly within families. We believe it is important to share the responsibility of educating children with our families and we seek their insights about their child's characteristics, wellbeing and learning experiences throughout the year.
Photographic and written documentation of children at play, at work on a project or experience and during routines helps to keep families informed. It also enables children and staff to reflect on, compare and discuss how their thinking is developing.
