Toddle

In 2024, we introduced Toddle, which is an internationally renowned, safe, digital platform for sharing student learning with families. We introduced Toddle to our Reception to Year 2 classes in semester one and then across years 3-6 during the second semester. This enables students to share their learning with their family members and thereby provide a visual context for conversations about the school day and progress at school. It supports families to engage in meaningful discussions with their child(ren) about their learning experiences at the time as well as to easily refer back to earlier tasks via an app. In addition, it is an efficient way for teachers to share upcoming assessment tasks and students’ learning portfolios is an environmentally friendly format for student progress.

Toddle helps keep everyone aware of current units of inquiry, including key subject areas and focus points. With a little coaching, students will be able to upload their learning tasks including audio explanations of their work, pending approval by their teacher. This platform therefore provides a more comprehensive snap shot of student thinking and learning, compared with paper alone. Assessment tasks include 3 point rubrics and comments from teachers to show how students performed against the requirements and what their next steps might be for further learning.

For further information on this application and how to use it, please see this PDF, or contact your child’s teacher.
