Our Story
As parents we believe passionately that journaling can help children to understand and process their feelings and emotions. Children's wellbeing and mental health is a huge challenge, faced by both schools and parents.
To help with these challenges we wanted to create an app for schools, where children can pause and take stock and process what is going on around them, rather than keeping things bottled up inside.

Our objectives:
• Create a world-class digital journal tool for schools
• Work in partnership with schools, to encourage and promote positive wellbeing skills to children through journaling.
• Use tech ethically, creating an opportunity for positive screen time for children
• Deliver the tried and tested benefits of journaling to children via an app, which is technology they love.

Review
Primary School Teacher Beth said:
‘The children in Year 2 really loved using Diaryzapp on a recent school trip. It was a fun and interactive way for them to record and report on the day’s events. It engaged even the most reluctant of writers and parents commented on how impressed they were with both the app and their children’s work. I look forward to using Diaryzapp in the year ahead and urge other primary school teachers to do the same as it is such an invaluable resource which helps motivate and enthuse children to excel in literacy’
