Tapestry

Tapestry is a secure online Learning Journal to record photos, observations and comments, in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum, to build a record of your child’s experiences during their time with us.

 

Tapestry is a website which can be accessed on a computer or laptop, and also on any Apple or Android device, such as a tablet or smart phone.

 

Parents/Carers are also able to upload their own photographs and videos, as well as comment on observations added from school. Please do take advantage of this feature as the children enjoy sharing their home experiences with their peers.
