There are forms of dress which are unacceptable in establishment, such as items of clothing which:
• could cause offence (such as anti-religious symbolism or political slogans)
• could cause health and safety difficulties, such as loose fitting clothing, dangling earrings
• carry advertising, particularly for alcohol or tobacco
• could be used to inflict damage on other children or be used by others to do so. Glasgow City Council is concerned at the level of claims being received regarding the loss of childrens’ and young peoples’ clothing 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 establishment. 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 have been negligent.
Suitable clothing
Children have the best fun when they are doing messy work! We will always try to make sure they wear aprons but accidents do happen so please dress your child in suitable clothes. Please also make sure that they have suitable outdoor clothes with them as the children will be outdoors in all weathers unless it is not safe to do so. It would be a good idea to label or write your child’s name inside their clothes as there can be some children who may have the same or similar jackets etc. Please ensure your child wears soft style shoes such as trainers or provide a pair of soft shoes for you child that can be left at nursery, to change into on arrival at Nursery – please ensure these shoes have Velcro fastening.Please provide wellies for your child to wear in the garden We have organised gym times in Cleeves Primary School and the children all need soft shoes in order to take part in this activity.
