Picking Up or Dropping off Your Child/Children
It is extremely important that our hallways are kept clear at all times. Parents are requested to drop off and pick up their child/children as quickly as possible. Many parents are congregating in the hallways and are tying up limited parking spaces in order to converse with each other. Children are left to roam in the hallways and are also entering classrooms unattended. This practice is unsafe and must stop. Parents must assume responsibility for their child/children. Please park respectfully in the lot after 4:30 pm. If space is unavailable you must use Lanark or Beaverbrook. Do not park illegally in the back lane or in the neighbours’ driveways.
We must have accurate information on how to get in touch with all parents. This is a child care regulation and is strictly enforced. Alternates must be made aware that we might be calling on them in the event we cannot get in touch with you.
Clothing
We are no longer able to provide clothing of any kind to children in our care. All items must come from home and will not be shared with anyone else. All preschool children must have two complete sets of clothing at the centre at all times. Too often children do not have sufficient items to change into and parents must ensure all their children’s belongings are labeled and available at all times. All children require appropriate outdoor clothing, ie. Waterproof mitts, hats, boots, ski pants and a warm jacket. All children in attendance go outside twice daily.

Winter
The children are very busy doing a variety of activities in their classrooms, please read the white boards outside your child’s classroom to see what they are doing on a daily basis.
2011 receipts will be emailed during the 2nd week in February. Each classroom will be having their own Valentine’s activities. Please check your child’s individual classrooms for further information closer to the date. REMINDER Due to severe food and environmental allergies, parents must not put any items food or otherwise in any child’s locker. Should you wish to bring in any food related items they must be commercially produced with all items clearly labeled. These items must be cleared with the Supervisor of the classroom. We appreciate your co-operation in this matter. Please be advised that we go outdoors daily unless the temperature dips below -25 degrees Celsius. Children must be appropriately dressed to enjoy the outdoors.
Just a reminder that we communicate with parents via email. Please ensure that you check your email to get current information, just in case there is an emergency situation at the centre.
