6. Toileting and

Handwashing

Toileting
The dignity and privacy of all our children is central to our ethos. We know how
important and essential toileting is to us all and being outdoors, we will have no

flushing toilets.

To ensure we maintain the privacy and dignity of all our children we will have a
variety of options:

Our main toileting facilities are composting toilets. We currently have one in our
cabin, two smaller composting toilets outdoors and one composting toilet at
Rock River.

We understand that while outdoors we may not always make it to a physical
toilet. If we cannot make it to a physical toilet we will always ensure the comfort
and dignity of the child is maintained.

Hand washing

More than ever we hear about the importance of handwashing and good hand
hygiene. We will adhere to the guidance set out by Health Protection Scotland in
Hygiene Requirement in Outdoor Nurseries in Scotland.

We will ask children and staff, as a
minimum, to wash their hands:

• Before and after morning snack
• Before and after lunch
• Before and after afternoon snack
• After any toileting
