In terms 4 and 1 of each year it is compulsory to wear a sunhat when outdoors. Our regulation plain navy blue bucket hat costs $12.00 from the school office. Our school policy states ‘no hat, no play’, so please ensure all the tamariki have the correct sunhat every day. Hats are also available at Academy Apparel for $15.00.
Along with their bucket hat, we recommend that you have them apply sunscreen before coming to school in the morning. Staff will also be reminding them to reapply during the day. If you are sending your child to school with sunscreen in their bag, we find that ‘roll on’ sunscreen is the easiest for them to apply independently.
