Uniform

What children wear to school is important.  Our uniform helps to give the children a sense of belonging to our school.

  • Trousers in grey
  • Skirts and pinafore dresses in grey or navy. Skirts must be an appropriate style and length for a school setting. Skirts should be tailored or pleated and fall to around the knee. Tube skirts, stretch fabric skirts, and those that are very short are not suitable for school and should not be worn.
  • Sweatshirt or cardigan in navy with the school logo (required – these are available on our pre-loved rail)
  • Shirts, polo shirts or blouses in pale blue or white
  • Summer dresses in blue and white gingham
  • Summer shorts/culottes in grey or navy
  • Socks and tights in grey, white or navy
  • Footwear with a sensible heel: Black shoes, NO TRAINERS as everyday wear please.
  • PE kit: Navy blue or black shorts (not branded), white or navy t-shirt (encouraged to have the school logo), plimsolls for indoor and trainers for outdoor PE, plain navy or black jogging bottoms (not branded), plain or school branded hoodie and a PE bag (encouraged to have one with the school logo, otherwise plain, unbranded), this must fit in a locker alongside school bag and coat.
  • A pair of wellies.
  • Waterproof coat and waterproof bottoms.
  • A Book bag is available from Uniform Direct
  • Jewellery.– A wrist watch (not smartwatch) and small studded earrings (one each ear) are the only permitted items of jewellery children can wear in school.  Children are expected to take their earrings out for PE and not put tape over them (unless the ears are newly pierced in which case tape can be worn for the first 6 weeks). This is for their safety. Children will either need to be able to take their earrings out themselves or not wear earrings on PE days.
  • Long hair must be tied back for PE.
  • Children are permitted to wear plain blue, black, brown, white bobbles or hair bands. Hair accessories are to be kept small and to a minimum.
  • No nail varnish, gel/acrylic nails are not to be worn. No Make up and no fake eyelashes is allowed in school.
  • Additional water bottles are available from school at a cost £2.50
