Throughout the session children are able to choose between playing inside or outside. Children play outside in the sun, rain and snow. We make sure that children are always appropriately dressed for the weather. Please help us by sending your child in appropriate clothing. In the summer this will mean wearing a shirt that covers their shoulders as well as a hat and sun cream.

In the winter this will mean wearing a warm coat, hat, scarf and gloves or mittens. If it is raining your child might like to wear Wellington boots. We have raincoats at nursery and will insist that your child wear one outside if it is raining.

It is important that children wear shoes that are appropriate for running and climbing.

At nursery children have opportunities to play with water, paint, clay and other materials daily. This is a very important part of their learning. We encourage all children to wear aprons, but occasionally they may still get a little messy.

Please send your child to nursery in clothing that you don’t mind getting a little messy. When children get wet we change them immediately. Help us by keeping your child’s bag full with clothing on their peg.  Finally, please ensure that you mark all clothing clearly with your child’s name.
