Thank you to the parents who have returned bricks for Humpty Dumpty with comments about our Learning Journeys.  What has become apparent from the parental response to these, is that not all parents know about our Learning Journeys.  Your child’s folder is kept on a shelf  in the nursery hall, beside the door to the Creativity Zone.  It is a record of some of the work we have done in Home Base Time throughout the year and shows their progress.  Parents are welcome to look at these whenever they like and if you would like to take them home for a longer look, just let your child’s keyworker know you’ve taken it

Learning journeys are arranged with 4 different coloured sections -Blue pages relate to language and literacy, yellow – maths, red- health and well being, and there is a special green section at the back to put achievements and experiences from outside nursery.  You are very welcome to either send in photos to put in this section of things you have done in the holidays etc, or if you prefer, you can take the folder home to put things in with your child. .

The folders are given to the children at the end of their pre-school year as a record of their years at nursery, so anything you put in the folder will be part of this.

Our children love looking at the things they have done- when we asked for the childrens’ 2 stars and a wish for their Learning Journeys, most of their wishes were that they could do more!
