Reminders for the New Year that were in an email.
Start thinking about a Science experiment for your child to present.
Each child will need a shoebox as described in the Nov. 23 email.
Please do not send it in until I request it. Thanks.
For Spring/Summer Months:
HOT WEATHER INFORMATION
Water bottles are mandatory! I will be making sure students are drinking their water.
Sun hats & sunscreen are necessary! Please apply sunscreen before arriving at school and if you send some,
I will remind your child to re-apply it before lunch recess.
Our classroom is not air-conditioned. I keep the blinds closed in the morning to keep the sun out and open the windows to get cool morning air. We also have a door to outside which can sometimes allow for breeze, if there is any, BUT it can still be quite hot in late Spring/early Summer.
**************************************************************************************************
OUTDOOR CLOTHING
LABEL ALL CLOTHING!
PLEASE HAVE YOUR CHILD WEAR APPROPRIATE OUTDOOR CLOTHING AND FOOTWEAR FOR THE WEATHER!
COATS/JACKETS ARE A MUST!
COATS SHOULD TO BE WATERPROOF AND BOOTS ARE BEST FOR RAINY DAYS.
WHATEVER YOUR CHILD WEARS ON THEIR FEET WHEN THEY ARRIVE AT SCHOOL IS WHAT THEY WEAR OUTSIDE.
SORRY, WE DON'T HAVE ROOM TO STORE OUTDOOR RUNNERS AND BOOTS,
SO PLEASE CHOOSE WHICHEVER IS BEST ON ANY GIVEN DAY.
THE SCHOOL HOODY IS FINE FOR MILD DAYS BUT THEY GET WET/SOAKED IN RAIN.
CONSIDER SLIPPING AN EXTRA PAIR OF SOCKS INTO THE BACKPACK.
CHILDREN DO GO OUTSIDE IN THE RAIN UNLESS IT'S "MONSOON-LIKE".
IF YOU THINK YOUR CHILD WOULD BENEFIT FROM WEARING "SPLASH PANTS" OUTSIDE,
PLEASE SEND THEM AND I WILL REMIND THE CHILDREN TO WEAR THEM.
WEARING A PAIR OF WARM PANTS, SUCH AS SWEAT PANTS OR FLEECE PANTS, UNDER A SKIRT/TUNIC FOR OUTSIDE PLAY, IS FINE, HOWEVER, THAT IS NOT PART OF THE UNIFORM AND SHOULD BE REMOVED WHEN THEY ARE INSIDE.
DON'T WORRY, THE CLASSROOM IS WARM.
GYM STRIP REMINDERS
WEAR: SHORT SLEEVE GREEN SCHOOL T-SHIRT, BLUE SCHOOL SHORTS, WHITE SOCKS, INDOOR RUNNERS (KEPT AT SCHOOL)
TIGHTS & LEGGINGS SHOULD NOT BE WORN UNDER THE SHORTS.
THEY NEED TO BE ABLE TO MOVE FREELY AND NOT GET OVER-HEATED.
THE SCHOOL TRACK SUIT (LONG PANTS & HOODY) IS WORN OVER TOP OF THE SHORTS & T-SHIRT WHEN THEY ARE NOT IN THE GYM (IN THE CLASSROOM & OUTSIDE). CHILDREN SHOULD ARRIVE AT SCHOOL WEARING THE TRACK SUIT
OVER TOP OF THE THEIR GYM STRIP. THANKS FOR YOUR CO-OPERATION.
