Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate you taking the time to complete the review. With regards to taking home the diary, this is possible and any parent is welcome to take their child's diary home by arrangement. Drop off and pick takes place outside the room as a rule in order to maintain the 'no shoe' policy, cause as little unnecessary disturbance to the remaining children as possible and also so as not to compromise safety. However, any parent wishing to come into the room to see their child is welcome to do so, just let us know.
