Please remember to put plain water only in your child’s water bottle in case of allergies.​​ Some of the children have realised that there is flavoured water in certain bottles and are helping themselves to those, so we are emptying several every day and refilling with water.

If it is easier, you can bring an empty bottle each day and we will fill it when you arrive.
