Learning stories give you a meaningful window into your child’s learning, interests, relationships, and everyday discoveries. When you read, thank, or comment on a story, you help build a stronger connection between home and your child’s early learning service.

Your engagement makes a real difference. A simple comment, photo, or thank you can help educators learn more about your child’s experiences outside the service, continue conversations with your child, and create a richer picture of their learning journey.

In Educa, the Thank button is used to show appreciation for a story. This works in a similar way to a Like button on other apps, but is named Thank to reflect the value of recognising the time, care, and thought educators put into sharing your child’s learning.

You’ll see the stories that have been shared with you.

You can also use the filter option in the top-right corner to view different story types, including:

The Thank button is a quick way to show your appreciation for a story.

The educator will be notified that you thanked the story.

You can add a comment to continue the conversation around your child’s learning.

Your comment will be visible to the family members and educators linked to your child’s profile.

You can comment on a group story in the same way as an individual story.

Important: Your comment is only visible to your child’s family members and educators. Families of other children included in the group story cannot see your comment.
