Note in my 4 year old's book bag from head teacher today - "Please ensure Toby wears a warm coat to school as it is quite chilly"...
My sons wear a winter coat to school every day. They both, at the school's year round stipulation, have a waterproof cagoule on their peg. Everyday without fail, he comes home with the cagoule on. He must also be picking the cagoule up instead of the warm coat, at playtime. I have told him which coat to put on. His teachers have seen him with me, every morning wearing the warm coat. I appreciate there are 80 kids in school and the teachers can't be expected to note which coat is which child's! But it has annnoyed me! What can I do, I'm not bloody there all day to help him select the right coat. And it has just wound me up that the Headteacher feels the need to tell me my son needs a suitable coat to wear! Arghh!!
