To ensure your child’s enjoyment and comfort while playing and learning, families are asked to provide the following items each day;
- A bottle/cup for water.
- Sufficient nappies if required
- A sun safe hat (legionnaire, broad-brimmed or bucket style – no caps or visors please)
- A full change of clothes – we love water and messy play
- Bottles of prepared formula or milk as per your child’s nutritional requirements
- We welcome any comfort items (dummies, ruggies etc) that your child may require but we do request that special toys and/or personal effects remain at home to avoid them being damaged or lost.
