Parent Communication
Bright Eyes believes that open communication with parents is extremely important, as this assists in the formation of strong relationships between parents, children and staff.  Bright Eyes does this in the following ways.

Parent Evenings
Bright Eyes hosts a number of parent evenings throughout the year where the teaching staff share information about children's progress and development.  Special evenings are also arranged on educational and other current topics.


Newsletters
A regular newsletter/information sheet is given to all parents. 

Notice Boards
Notice boards at the entrance share information with parents. 

Communication Notebooks
Communication notebooks are sent home daily with children under two.  Parents are asked to write any notes in the book in the morning.  All children have a portfolio of their work, art and running records written by staff.  These are shared with parents.  And of course the staff are always available to discuss your child's progress with you on a daily basis.  

Other
Books and pamphlets on a variety of early childhood related topics are also available to families.  Copies of the Centre's charter, policies and Education Review Office Accountability Reports are available for viewing by all parents at the Centre.  As a parent you are just as much part of the centre as your child.  We therefore encourage parents to visit whenever they wish.
