communication
parent information
RCK recognises the limits on parents/guardians time but we do encourage a partnership between yourself and the staff members caring for your child. Your involvement in your child's life at the creche creates all sorts of benefits for you, your child and the creche. Parents/guardians are most welcome to visit their child at the creche and to telephone during the day should they have any concerns.
Ongoing Communication
Communication each day with staff is of the utmost importance. It is advisable to inform staff or the Co-ordinator of any changes to the child's routines and family situations, as they arise, as this helps provide an understanding by staff of any changes to the child's behavior.
Newsletter
A regular newsletter is provided to parents/guardians which contains general information, programs, highlights, activities and parent and children's issues. If you would like to contribute something to the newsletter please let the Co-ordinator know. It is important to read your newsletter, as it is the main communication tool between you and the Management Committee. Parents have the option to either have their newsletters, updates and the link emailed to them or to have them printed. Please indicate your preference to the co-ordinator upon enrolment, ensuring you advise of any change in email address during your time with the RCK.
Allocation of lockers and family pockets
After enrolment all children are allocated a locker for personal items and artwork. Parents/guardians also have a 'pocket' in which receipts, newsletters and are placed. These should be cleared each day your child attends rck.
Library Information
The creche has a Library that includes books, videos, pamphlets and brochures covering a range of childcare, parenting and related family issues and parents are encouraged to borrow these items from the creche.
