Are you ready to grab your 6-month Diary?

Or are you curious about the benefits of using Calendar Year over Financial Year?

Here are the benefits for our Childcare customers followed by the benefits for our Tradie customers.

The benefits of Calendar Year for our Childcare Customers are:

  1. Consistency: Most centres and schools run on the calendar year from January to December. Using the Calendar Year Diary will provide greater consistency when collaborating with educators and schools, providing a smoother transition for children. This aligns with NQS 6.2.1: Transitions.

  2. Planning and Goal Setting: The calendar year naturally provides a clear start and end point, making it convenient for setting annual goals and planning long-term for the children in your care. It allows you to break down your objectives into monthly, quarterly, and yearly goals, facilitating better outcomes for children. This aligns with NQS 1.3.1: Assessment and Planning Cycle.

  3. Assessment and Rating: One big focus of A&R is showing the cycle of planning for the children in your care. A Calendar Year Diary keeps your ongoing cycle for that year’s children organised and all in the one place, keeping evidence for A&R all in the same place. It also makes linking with our existing record-keeping tools such as The Childcare Centre Diary, Educational Leader Diary, and Nominated Supervisor Diary easier as they also use the Calendar Year. This also aligns with NQS 1.3.1: Assessment and Planning Cycle and works toward exceeding Theme 1: Embedded in Service Operations.

The benefits of Calendar Year for our Tradie Customers are:

  1. Alignment with Personal Life: Most people's personal lives and events follow the calendar year format. The Calendar Year Diary allows you to seamlessly integrate personal events, holidays, birthdays, and anniversaries with your professional schedule, making it easier to plan and manage your time effectively.

  2. Consistency and Familiarity: The calendar year is the standard and widely recognised time frame used by most individuals. We all consider December and the Christmas period as the time to wrap jobs up for the year. The Calendar Year Diary focuses on the year ahead and helps you close off your jobs in December. Using a Calendar Year Diary ensures consistency and familiarity when communicating and scheduling with others.

  3. Transition Simplicity: Switching to a Calendar Year Diary can be less disruptive since it aligns with the natural progression of time. You don't have to adjust your routine or update systems midway through a financial year while jobs are still in progress, which can save time and minimise potential errors.

An extra note for Tradies:

We made sure to make the best tool in the Tradies’ Toolbox even better!

All the Tradie Diaries have now merged to become 'The Tradie Diary,' suitable for all Trades. We have brought together all the best tools from each Diary and created the ultimate Tradie Tool.

The Tradie Diary is now suitable for all our existing Tradies; Carpenters, Construction Managers, Plumbers, Supervisors, Landscapers, Electricians, Floorers, Project Engineers, Scaffolders, Fencers, Painter & Decorators, Concreters, Pipelayers, Tilers, Plasterers, Riggers, and Bricklayers.

As well as all the other Australian and New Zealand Tradies!
