We use a variety of ways to communicate with our families including a text messaging service, email, newsletters and of course face to face!
Parentzone and iConnect
ParentZone goes hand in hand with a software called iConnect. Our Early Years Educators use tablets in the rooms which has proved a huge success since we introduced the system a couple of years ago. This enables our staff to make learning observations quickly and efficiently leaving much more time to play, teach and care for the children instead of spending time on paperwork. It also allows you to have instant year round access to your child’s daily activities and learning.
Getting Access
You can download ParentZone from the Google Play Store & the Apple App Store. If you don’t have a smart phone, you can log in at www.parentzone.me . When your child starts at Putnoe Woods we will send out a secure email to invite you to activate your account and set up a unique ParentZone log in. If you do not receive this email, please check your junk folder. The office can re send this registration email if you have not received it but we must have correct email addresses!

Parent Consultations
Twice a year we will hold parent consultations. On this day you can book a slot with your child's key worker and have a conversation about how they are progressing. This opportunity allows you to view some of your child's creative handiwork and discuss your child in detail.
If you do have any concerns at all before the consultation day please speak to your child's key worker as soon as possible.
