However on days where the program states that these are allowed children may wish to bring them in but need to be responsible for their own belongings.
Read program carefully taking note of departure and arrival times (these are estimated as close as possible).
We have a hat and sunscreen policy, please ensure your child has a hat at all times and if they can not use our homebrand sunscreen please provide your own.
