Outdoor clothing

Good afternoon everyone ,

This is a reminder to please ensure that your child has suitable outdoor clothing with them every day . At this time of year that means wellies and a waterproof suit or jacket and trousers . We try to spend as much time as possible outdoors as the children really benefit from outdoor activity. They are able to explore , dig , mix, run and jump , build dens , make creations in the mud kitchen , role play in the cafe , take care of plants , observe seasonal changes in the environment, practice and extend physical skills and most of all have fun in the fresh  air! However , they do need to be properly dressed in order to make the most of their time outside .
Don't forget they also need a full change of clothes each day , and soft soled shoes or slippers for indoors and please name or initial all items   -Thank you .

We will shortly be issuing a revised policy on administering non- prescription medication . You will all be given a copy of this along with information on why we have updated this . This is the time of year that we begin to see an increase in illnesses - please remember to tell us if your child is ill so we can alert  others , and keep them at home until they are fully recovered.  This will help to keep the spread of infections as low as possible and a healthier  environment for us all.

We will also soon be launching our new blog area which will be part of the nursery website , but with password access only for parents and staff at Craigton - in this area we will also be able to upload policies and other documents of interest- watch this space for further info . Huge thanks to Carl for all his hard work on this - its very much appreciated!

The sunflowers would like to create a display of family photos in their classroom - please bring some along and hand to a member of staff or you can email them to     sunflowers@clns.co.uk
They'd also be really happy to have any autumn treasures you find whilst out and about to add to their collection on their Autumn table - leaves , pine cones , conkers all welcome!

And finally a reminder  that Parents Evening will be on Wednesday 19th November 6-7:30pm .
