Care Diary – This is a great communication tool to share brief accounts of the school day, your child’s evening or morning. Please use this tool to support relationships and effective communication with class teams. Contact via the care diary will be made daily by the class team to explain the content of your child’s day.

We invite parents to post and share the home learning experiences that take place during the week, weekends and holidays. Please contact us if you are experiencing problems with this.
