Helpful Tips for EYFS
PE Kits: PE takes place on a Wednesday. Children come into school dressed in their PE kits and wear them all day. The kit is a royal blue PE T-shirt, royal blue shorts, royal blue tracksuit trousers (optional) and plimsolls or trainers.
Outdoor Learning: Our summer sessions will begin on Thursday 15th May 2025. Please remember to send your child into school with clothing that covers their arms and legs. There are many nettles and insects at this time of year, therefore it is important that arms and legs are kept covered when we are in the outdoor learning area. If the weather has been dry then trainers will be sufficient footwear, however if the ground is wet then we request that children bring wellies to wear. Please also label your child's belongings so that we can make sure they go home in the correct bag.Fruit and milk: A healthy piece of fruit is available each day. Free milk is available until children turn five. Please enquire at the school office for details.
Snacks: Children may bring healthy snacks for morning or afternoon breaks. We allow chocolate once a week (Tuesdays). Sweets and lollipops are not permitted, as these are a potential choking hazard. As the children mature, we encourage them to open packaging independently.
Warm weather: Now that we are entering the summer term, it is important that your child wears a hat to school to protect their faces and eyes when they are outside. We also request that on particularly hot days, you apply sunscreen to your child before coming to school. Children are not permitted to apply sunscreen during the school day.
Water Bottles: Your child will need a water bottle in school every day. Please can these bottles be filled with water, rather than squash or juice. The water bottle needs to be clearly labelled with your child’s name.
Spare Clothes: It is helpful if your child has spare clothing in their bag for emergencies, eg pants and socks. It does not need to be school uniform.
Care Plan: If your child requires a care plan for any medical needs, please collect a form from the school office and return to school ASAP.
