An A to Z of DUCKS
An A to Z of DUCKS
Uniform Kindergarten Children do not wear a uniform. We suggest the following considerations to be made in respect of what your child wears when they are at the Kindergarten. By the nature of our curriculum, many of the Kindergarten activities include a degree of mess and although we provide and encourage children to use aprons, these do not always protect their clothes fully, especially when they are deeply engaged in play. We actively encourage children to explore everything we offer them. Please dress your children in clothes that allow them to explore the environment and do not matter if they become stained and are easy to wash. The Kindergarten is more high-street than high end-fashion! Outdoor Wear Children will be encouraged to make full use of the outdoor areas all year round. We would ask that you provide labelled wellington boots and a labelled waterproof coat. We supply warm, all-in-one suits, sun hats and sun cream. We will inform you of the particular brand of suncream that we will be using. If you wish to use your own sun cream, please label your bottle carefully and leave with your child’s class teacher/key person. Winter clothing The following winter clothing is required from the beginning of the Michaelmas Term through to the end of the Lent Term: • wellington boots • gloves attached to ribbon • warm coat/rain coat • hat We also hope to encourage your children to develop independence skills and these can be very well supported by ensuring your child is wearing clothes suitable to their stage of development; for example, shoes that fasten with Velcro are more suitable than shoes with laces; trousers with an elasticated waistband are more suitable than those with belts, buttons and/or zips. Infants’ School children wear a smart comfortable uniform, the crested items of which are available from the Commissariat (Comm) at Dulwich College and online. Please ensure that all items of clothing are named, using a label, a sticker or an indelible pen. When children join the Infants’ School, they are provided with a DUCKS book bag, which we use daily.
