Uniform
All children should be appropriately dressed in school uniform and well presented.
We also encourage our children to be outside as much as possible so please ensure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather.
The school encourages the wearing of a red sweatshirt or cardigan (Y3 to Y5) or a black sweatshirt or cardigan (Y6 only), with grey or black school trousers, pinafore or skirt (leggings are not permissible unless worn under a skirt or summer dress) and a white shirt/blouse, or white or red polo-shirt. Pupils may wear red gingham-check school dresses, or grey or black school shorts during the summer months.
Sweatshirts, cardigans and other uniform items with our school logo are available from our uniform stockists (see below for details).
Footwear must be dark coloured school shoes or all-black trainers with no logo.
PE Kit
So we can get outside as much as possible children are expected to have their PE kit in school at all times. Our PE kit consists of black or navy shorts, and a red or white T-shirt (these are also available with the school logo from our uniform providers as detailed above) and plimsolls (not trainers) are needed for indoor PE. Trainers may be worn for outdoor games and athletics lessons. A tracksuit, or jogging bottoms and a sweatshirt/fleece, may be worn for outdoor PE sessions during the colder months.
Please ensure all items (including coats and bags) are clearly named.
Jewellery
In the interests of health and safety children must not wear any jewellery to school, except for a small watch. Your child may also wear small stud earrings as long as they can remove them for swimming and PE. A small watch may be worn in school.
Painted nails and/or false nails are not allowed in school.
