THE COLD WEATHER HAS ARRIVED!

It is very obvious that the temperature has dropped significantly in the last week.  Many children are coming to school with the proper attire and some are not.  Unless the temperature is significantly below zero and we are directed to keep the children in for outdoor learning and lunch, they will not be allowed to stay inside just because they find it too cold. 

Let’s make sure we are all warm as we confront these cold winter months.

Here is a list of the important pieces of clothing that should be worn during these cold winter months: 

ü  a warm, heavy coat

ü  waterproof and weatherproof boots (boots that can stand up to the -20 degree temperature)

ü  warm, waterproof gloves

ü  snow pants

ü  hat

ü  scarf

ü  balaclava

ü  layered sweaters

In your child’s bag, it would be beneficial for your son/daughter to have the following:

ü  an extra pair of warm socks

ü  an extra pair of warm gloves

Let’s do the best we can to keep warm and healthy over the winter

Thanks for your help!

Sincerely,

The English Kindergarten Team
