Why does my child need wellies for school?
In Reception we are fortunate to have a new lovely outdoor area to play in. We play outdoors in all weathers so appropriate footwear is highly recommended. We also wear wellies in fair weather so that we can have lots of fun playing on the bikes and scooters and we don't damage our shiny new school shoes.
