KidsFox 6.0.0

The next kindergarten year is sure to come – the new group diary is already here!

NEW

With the revised group diary feature, many of the hurdles of a physical group diary are now a thing of the past. Record entries and document your group’s program and progress clearly and neatly at any time.

NEW

Write down tasks and attach templates and samples.

NEW

Or record a general comment, such as holidays, trips or other general occurrences. Attendance is documented and displayed across groups. And if someone gets sick, substitutes can also be granted access to the group diary.

NEW

Admins have read access to all of your kindergarten’s group diaries at any time and can review and confirm them. And at the end of the kindergarten year, the group diaries can be neatly exported as PDFs and put into storage. This is how modern working works.

We just don’t have anything for the parents this time, as the group diary is only accessible to kindergarten staff – but we wish all our users a great start to the summer from FoxBau!
