What to bring

Children need to bring these items each day:

  • a bag they can easily open
  • change of clothes (including socks and underwear)
  • drink bottle containing water only
  • healthy snack
  • packed lunch.

Put the healthy snack and lunch in 2 different containers. The snack will stay in your child’s bag and their lunch will go on the lunch box shelve inside. We are unable to put your child’s lunch in the fridge, so if it is hot weather please include an ice pack in their lunch box.

Many of our activities are messy. Your child should wear comfortable and old clothes so they can get dirty, and their shoes should be suitable for running and climbing.

Please write your child’s name on all their belongings. Named belongings can easily be returned to you. Check our lost property box for any lost unnamed items.

What not to bring

Children should not bring these things:

  • food with whole nuts
  • fizzy drinks or cordial in their water bottle
  • toys from home (if your child has a comfort toy, please discuss this with us).

We will supply your child with a hat that stays at kindy. This costs $12 and is invoiced in term 1.

Newsletters and Notes

Newsletters and other information will be placed in your child’s note pocket.

Additional information may also be displayed on the gate or Parent Notice Board.
