Throughout the year, your child’s portfolio will be updated daily, and contain journals, photographs, project work and learning stories. You can view your child’s portfolio anytime you visit your child’s studio.
In addition to the portfolio, parents have access to the Little Scholars app. Our parent app provides you with photographs and a summary of your child’s week, documenting your child’s progress so you can see what your child is learning. So you know you’re in safe hands when you enrol your child at our childcare centre!
