Record daily activities

Staff record activities so families and colleagues can follow the child’s day.

Add an activity

1. Open the child’s Activity tab and select Add Activity, or use the activity action on the room page.
2. Choose the activity type, such as a meal, nap or nappy change.
3. Enter the details the form asks for. Set the time it happened; for an activity with a duration, check its start and end times.
4. Add a brief, useful note if needed, then save.
5. Check the activity appears on the correct child’s timeline.

For a group activity, check every selected child before saving. Do not put another child’s personal information into a shared note.

Write a useful note

“Enjoyed the vegetable soup and asked for more” is more helpful than “Lunch done”. Describe what happened in plain, respectful language. Include only information useful to the family or the next member of staff.

Correct an activity

Staff with permission to manage activities can open the three-dot Actions menu beside the saved activity and choose Edit or Delete. Parents and family cannot correct staff activity records; contact the office if an entry is wrong. Check the time as well as the details. The timeline shows the current saved activity, so a correction changes what readers see.

An activity is different from attendance. To correct an arrival or departure, use Correct attendance.
