Once your child is enrolled and attending Aycliffe Drive Nursery, you will be given parental access to Tapestry, our Online Learning Journal provider. Please ensure that you have provided your email address so that we can send you an activation link to set up your account. If you wish both parents to log on separately please provide both email addresses.

Tapestry allows you to login 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 from home. 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.

You will be notified by email when your child has a new observation added. Each child will have, on average, one new observation added every week.

All data that is entered to 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/index.html

Please explore this website and find out more about what Tapestry can do and how it supports the link between home and school.

Once we have set you up with an account you will be able to login using any web browser from https://tapestryjournal.com/ or by downloading the Tapestry app from the Play or App store, depending on what type of device you are using.

Once your child is attending our school, 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 login 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 please check your spam/junk folders for this email if you have not received it, or check your email address is correct with a member of staff.

We do hope you enjoy using Tapestry, we have found it an invaluable way of communicating quickly with families and sharing special moments, as well as parents/carers being able to add on observations from home. Do let us know if you have any questions about it, please email admin@aycliffedrive.herts.sch.uk if you have any questions or need support setting up your account.
