I dont do them as parents didnt want them. I have one diary where I write down what we all do and have folders for the kids with pics and comments (observations etc). I hope this is enough paperwork in regards to the kids themelves...but not sure on that either (this is scotland btw no Ofsted and EYFS)
one LO goes to nursery in the morning and her mum now wants more info of what is happening at nursery. she is fine with my info as we chat each night but as she doesnt go to nursery as it is me that takes the Lo she wants more info.
nursery said they will start a daily diary for her and I agreed to take part and also fill in what we do for the day and then to send it home to the parents.
dad then said it is too much for them to do it daily as they have long hours at work and I understand that.
so I said : why dont I do the daily diary with the nursery on a daily basis and we will send it home for you at the weekend so you can see what LO has done all throught he week. you can add comments etc etc...LO is 4 btw.
he said that was a great idea and he would rather sit down at the weekend and look through the stuff properly than rushed within the week
so I said this to the nursery this morning and the lady said : well then that is a waste of time.
ok maybe I am not an expert but I was trying to help and make sure parents get what they want and subsequently will also use and benefit from
can you pls let me know what you think about this?
I am now thinking that maybe I should have never suggested that they could have it over the weekend only...
thanks
