Dressing for Winter!

Dear Stoney Creek Parents,

Well, Winter has finally arrived and our students need to wear warm, outdoor clothing to protect themselves from the harsh elements of our Winters when they go outside during our 2 nutritional breaks.

Today, many of our students in Primary all the way to Intermediate did not have appropriate clothing on.  All students should have on a hat, mitttens/gloves and a scarf to cover their face from the wind.  If you could reinforce at home that if your child brings snow pants to school, they must wear them at recess time.  Also, an extra pair of mittens/gloves in backpacks are also recommended as the first pair are usually wet by 2nd recess.

It may not be 'cool' to wear snow pants in grades 6, 7 or 8, but when students are outside for 25 minutes, they tend to get very cold without snow pants on. 

Please have a talk with your child to ensure they bring the appropriate clothing for being outside tomorrow. 

Students who do not have the appropriate clothing are asked to take items from our 'lost & found' table to wear to protect themselves from the cold.

Thank you for your support.
