Staying warm at recess!
We will continue to go outside for recess during the winter unless the weather condition pose a risk to the safety of students. Please be sure that your child is dressed appropriately for being outside in the cold.
In addition to wearing a warm winter coat, here are a few tips to help ensure that your child stays warm during the cold winter months!
In order to play in the snow, students are required to to wear boots and gloves. It is also very helpful if all items are labeled with your child's name.
In addition to wearing a warm winter coat, here are a few tips to help ensure that your child stays warm during the cold winter months!
- Send students to school with plenty of layers, sweatshirts, sweaters and pullovers. Layering clothing will allow them to add or remove items depending on the weather.
- Hats are one of the most important parts of dressing warmly in the winter. A thick winter hat will keep students from losing too much of that essential body heat.
- Gloves will keep kids’ hands toasty warm and protect their skin from becoming damaged by the wind and chill!
