Please make sure all clothing is named, especially sweatshirts, sun hats, coats, boots and shoes.
Please send your child to preschool appropriately dressed (warm clothing and waterproof coats in the winter/sun hats and sun-block in the warmer months). As well as providing a clearly named bottle of sunblock for your child, which will be locked away at pre-school in order that staff can re-apply when necessary, we would ask that sunblock be applied at home prior to attending preschool.
We provide protective clothing for the children when they play with messy activities, but it would be preferable if your child did not come dressed in their best clothes, because despite our best efforts, accidents do happen! We encourage children to practice the necessary skills to be independent. These include taking themselves to the toilet and taking off and putting on outdoor clothes. Clothing that is easy for them to manage will help them do this.
