Our House Rules

We are kind to each other

We are always kind with each other and treat each other how we would like to be treated. We do not fight or deliberately hurt any one else. This teaches and establishes respect amongst all the children.

We eat & drink at the table

We eat and drink at the table or in the high chair to help keep the house clean and to avoid accidents. This will promote manners (ie passing of sauce), acceptable eating habits, promote variation of food types (quite often children will want what another child is eating) and also give the children the opportunity to discuss the days events.

We share the toys & games & help to tidy them away when we have finished playing

We will share the toys, games and activities and help to tidy them up when we have finished playing with them. We will take care of the toys. By tidying away the toys after playing the playing area will be less hazardous and toys will not get broken. Tidying away the games afterwards will ensure that pieces do not go missing.

We do not jump on furniture

We do not jump or climb on furniture. This prevents accidents happening to ourselves and others. It also prevents damage to the furniture.

We always take our shoes off inside

We take off our outside shoes when we go into the house to help keep the house clean.

We do not damage other peoples property

We do not damage other peoples property. We treat it with respect.

We talk nicely to each other

We do not call each other names, we do not swear, we will not be sarcastic with any one. We speak to others how we like to be spoken too.

We keep the air smoke free

We will keep the air free from smoke, and ask any adults who wish to smoke to do so outside of the house.

We use manners

We remember to use ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ and speak nicely to others.

We treat each other the same

We understand that everybody is different and include everybody in activities regardless of their age, sex, origin, ability or language. Everybody is an individual.
