What is Tapestry and how does it work?
Tapestry is an online system we use at Briary Pre-School to record and share your child’s learning journey. Instead of traditional paper journals with observations and photos, everything is stored online. This allows you to view your child’s progress anytime, whether at home or on the go.
You will also be able to access and view invoices through the system.
How It Works
-
Individual Accounts: Every child has their own Tapestry account. Staff add observations, photos, and notes about your child’s learning and development.
-
Parent Access: Parents and carers receive a login so they can view their child’s learning journey, memos, documents and invoices. You will only be able to see your own child or children.
-
Sharing Moments: You can also share events or achievements that happen outside the Pre-School, such as family trips, milestones, or new skills, directly with your child’s Key Person.
Devices You Can Use
-
Mobile Phones: Tapestry works on Android phones and iPhones. Simply download the app from your phone’s app store to log in.
-
Tablets: Supported on iPads, Kindles (some older models may not be compatible), and Android tablets with Google Play. Download the app, log in, and view or add observations.
-
Computers: Access Tapestry via your web browser by searching “Tapestry Online Learning Journal” or using the direct login link provided by the Pre-School.
How to Get a Login
To receive a Tapestry login:
1. Email us at briarypreschool@btconnect.com with your child’s name.
2. We will send you an activation link to set your password.
3. You can also create accounts for relatives such as grandparents, aunts, or uncles so they can follow your child’s progress.
4. Once your account is set up, you will receive email notifications whenever your child’s Key Person adds a new observation.
Tapestry helps you stay connected to your child's learning and ensures that you can share in their achievements and development every step of the way.
