Uniform

It is our school policy that all children wear school uniform when attending school, or when participating in a school-organised event outside normal school hours. For further information please view our uniform policy in the school policies section of our website.

Our school uniform consists of the following:

Nursery

As whole school uniform (based on parental wishes) but children are permitted to wear black jogging bottoms for ease in EYFS.  

Reception to Year 6

Our school uniform colours are in purple and grey as listed below. Most items can be bought from high street shops and they are also sold via:

  • Tartan or grey skirt/pinafore dress/purple and white summer dress in summer
  • Grey trousers/shorts in summer (not leggings)
  • White shirt
  • Purple & grey tie (available from the school office)
  • Purple knitted jumper or cardigan (with logo available from the above website)
  • Plain black polishable shoes

Waterproof coats, with the school logo, which are suitable for boys and girls are also available.

Shoes should be flat, plain black, polishable and appropriate for school. Please do not send your child to school in shoes which prevent them from running in the playground or on our school field. Your child should be in shoes which he or she can manage to do up independently. In the interests of Health and Safety, tight skirts/dresses, sun dresses, sleeveless t-shirts and crop tops, are not permitted.

For health and safety reasons children are not permitted to wear rings, hooped earrings, nose studs and eyebrow rings at any time.

PE Kit

Children need a change of clothes and footwear for PE for health and hygiene reasons. If they do not have a PE kit as listed below, they are asked to attend school in their normal uniform. Class teachers will communicate other PE days for their classes so that you can prepare your child with their kit. Girls and boys wear:

  • Plain black shorts
  • Plain t-shirt in your child’s team colour (you will be notified of the colour)
  • A pair of plimsolls (indoor) or trainers (outdoor)
  • Plain black/grey jogging bottoms and sweatshirts/hoodies for outdoor lessons in cold weather- elasticated ones are essential for younger children

All school uniform and PE kit MUST be named. Children can become upset, and much time can be wasted as a result of lost clothing. Please help us by naming everything.
