We spend lots of time playing, exploring and learning indoors and outdoors, so comfortable, practical clothing is best.
What to Bring
- 🧥 Waterproof coat – suitable for the weather
- 👕 Spare clothes – at least two complete changes, including underwear
- 👟 Suitable footwear – including wellies for wet weather
- 💧 Named water bottle
- ☀️ Sun protection – hat and sun cream in warmer weather
- 🧷 Nappies and wipes – if your child needs them
Clothes for Play
Children enjoy a wide range of activities at pre-school, including messy, creative, water and outdoor play. Please send your child in comfortable clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty.
Clothing that is easy to put on and take off also helps children develop confidence and independence, particularly when using the toilet or getting ready to go outside.
We provide aprons for messy and water play, but children are welcome to join in whether or not they choose to wear one.
Ready for the Outdoors
We have free-flow access to our outdoor area throughout our sessions, allowing children to enjoy fresh air, physical activity and outdoor play in all seasons.
A waterproof coat and wellies are particularly useful on wet days. We have some spare outdoor clothing available, but children are generally more comfortable in their own clothes and footwear.
Please Label Everything
Please clearly label your child’s clothing, footwear and belongings. This helps us make sure everything finds its way home.
A Few Things to Tell Us
Please let us know about any dietary, cultural or religious requirements so we can make sure your child’s needs are understood and supported.
If your child needs medication during their session, please speak to a member of staff. We will discuss what is needed and provide the appropriate arrangements.
