How does the school keep kids comfortable in the heat?
Our preschool facility has ample shade in the garden. To avoid the heat, outdoor playtime is scheduled in the early mornings and afternoons. Kids can enjoy play activities involving water to keep cool. We also make sure they stay hydrated with fresh water.
Our building is air-conditioned. We advise parents to provide jackets for the children to wear so that the temperature change is not so drastic when they go from outdoors to indoors.
Rest assured, the children do not spend 100% of their time in air-conditioned rooms. There are fans placed in most areas of the campus that aid with ventilation and temperature regulation.
