REMINDERS

Clothing Reminders
We go out everyday, so please make sure your child has an appropriate coat, even a hat and mittens as the weather get's cooler.  It can get chilly when outside for a long time. For the snowy winter months, waterproof mittens (gloves are much harder for children to put on) keep hands dry and warm.

• Shoes…as girls dress shoes and crocs and stylish are maybe comfortable, the children run, play, bike and climb everyday. These types of shoes can be challenging at times when doing these activities. Please make sure your child has appropriate play shoes.
• Extra clothes in their backpacks are very important. Accidents happen, art projects happen, playgrounds can be wet…please check your child’s backpack.
• LABEL, LABEL, LABEL…. again please label everything. It helps so things do not get lost in the shuffle!

Breakfast Reminder
Breakfast can be served from 7-7:30am for students arriving with a prepared breakfast. Children, over 12 months of age, arriving after 7:30am need to be fed and ready for the day.
