DS1 is due to start reception this September. In normal times, PE kit would be kept at school: shorts, t-shirt and plimsolls for indoor; joggers, sweatshirt and trainers for outdoor. Due to the Covid situation and wanting to minimise items at school, we've been asked to send them in on PE days (twice a week) wearing joggers, t-shirts, sweatshirts and trainers, with shorts underneath on indoor PE day. I can see the logic for outdoor days, but for indoor lessons it seems a bit odd. I'm not sure how comfortable shorts under joggers will be all day; they'll still have to change by taking joggers and sweatshirts off; and I'm not sure of the wisdom of doing indoor PE lessons in trainers that are worn to and from school, and therefore possibly with mud and dirt on them.
This isn't the biggest issue on the world, and I do understand the school's desire to keep things simple right now, but it seems less than ideal to me.
