- Your child should come to kinder in comfortable play clothes. We do our best to protect clothing, but accidents do happen and outdoor play can be messy! For paint spills we recommend cold water washing.
- Include a change of clothes, including socks and underpants, in your child's bag.
- Please make sure all clothes are clearly named.
- For safety reasons thongs, slip-on shoes and Crocs are not permitted.
- Suitable wet weather clothing is required during the colder months as we always find time to play outside.
- Please do not to send your child to kindergarten dressed in character costumes, e.g. Batman, Snow White.
- Remember to check the lost property draw regularly!
