All children will have their peg in the cloakroom where you can leave a bag with change of clothes e.g. trousers/skirt, t-shirt, pants socks etc. We have a very limited stock of spare clothes therefore it is important that your child’s bag is replenished after use. We would recommend for every child to have a pair of soft shoes to wear within the playroom. Apart from comfort it is more hygienic and therefore essential that your child changes from outdoor shoes.
When dressing your child for nursery we ask that you consider the following:
- Children enjoy taking part in ‘messy’ activities and although every effort is made to see that they wear the aprons provided, accidents do happen.
- We encourage every child to become independent in self-help skills such as going to the toilet on their own.
- Considering our climate outdoor clothing is essential. To take advantage of the outdoor play area and the local community we ask that all children are brought to nursery suitably dressed for the weather. The nursery does have a supply of wet weather clothing (waterproofs and wellingtons) for children who do not have their own. Many families choose to provide their own, to ensure a proper fit.
- Please remember that your child can be indoors and outdoors throughout their sessions so please be mindful that shoes can be difficult to get on and off, especially when they have laces.
