Centre Reflection and Communication Journal
 
A must-have shared journal for the staffroom, programming room or educator table.
 
Bring your team communication, centre reflections and continuous improvement notes together in one easy-to-use place. This Centre Reflection and Communication Journal is designed to support everyday educator communication, shared professional reflection and team collaboration, while also helping make quality practice more visible across your service.
 
Instead of messages being lost on sticky notes, group chats or hallway conversations, this journal gives educators one clear place to record important updates, weekly reflections, maintenance notes, educator appreciation, PD requests, QIP ideas, NQS focus points, shopping needs and centre reminders.
 
It is perfect for placing on the staffroom table, programming desk or sign-in area for educators, so the team can quickly read, add to and reflect throughout the week.
