Castlemilk Day Nursery

Children have so much fun doing creative activities and although we encourage children to wear aprons for messy play and puddle suits outdoors, sometimes the children still need changed. Therefore we ask that you provide a change of clothes and inooor shoes.

Lots of learning takes place outdoors, could you please make sure your child is dressed for the weather, living in Glasgow that could mean four season in one day so making sure they have wellie boots and a suitable jacket at nursery covers for all eventualities.

There are forms of dress which are unacceptable such as items of clothing which:

• potentially encourage animosity (such as football colours)
• could cause offence (such as anti-religious symbolism or political slogans)
• could cause health and safety difficulities, such as dangling earrings, open toe sandals, loose fitting clothing
• carrying advertising, particularly for alochol or tobacco

Glasgow City Council is concerend at the level of claims being recieved regarding the loss of children's and young people's clthing and/or personal belongings. Parents/carers are asked to assist in this area by ensuring that valuable items and unnecessarily expensive items of clothing are not brought to the nursery. Parents/carers should note that the authority does not carry insurance to cover the loss of such items and any claims submitted are likely to be met only where the authority can be shown to be negligent.
