We are very pleased to announce that we are now using Tapestry as our online learning journal provider for Discovery Learning.

Tapestry allows you to log in with a secure username and password, so you can view all your children’s observations, photographs and videos. You can like and comment on observations that we add for your child and it’s also possible for you to add your own observations. Your comments and own observations will allow us to find out about which activities your child really enjoyed and the learning they get up to at home.

It’s also possible for you to be notified via email if there are new entries for you to view. There are lots of features we will look to develop in the future, such as documents, memos and activities to do at home.

We will set you up using your email address and once this has been done, you will receive an activation email from which you can set up your own password to log in with. You will also be asked to set up a 4-digit PIN which you can use on the Tapestry app to quickly log back in once you’ve initially logged in. Do remember to keep an eye out on your spam/junk folders for this email.

All data that is entered into Tapestry is stored securely on their servers. If you are interested in finding out more information about this, you can go to https://tapestry.info/security.

Once we have set you up with an account, you will be able to log in using any web browser from tapestryjournal.com or by downloading the Tapestry app from the Play or App store.

As explained above, we will use Tapestry to send you observations of your child, which might include photos and videos. If you give your permission in the form here, you will be able to see group observations which might include photos and videos with other children as well as your own and consequently, other parents/carers might be able to view photos and videos of your child.

We do hope you enjoy using Tapestry. Do let us know if you have any questions about it.
