Uniform

We feel it is important that children not only take a pride in the appearance of the school, classroom, school work, etc, but also in their own appearance. The School encourages the wearing of uniform and the children enjoy showing that they belong to the school in this way. Uniform is one of the criteria of your child's report card. In order to be awarded 'green' your child needs to wear school uniform every day.

You can now buy our school uniform online from Chromasport. Click on the link below and type the name of our school in the search bar.

Summer Uniform

Girls may wear sun dresses in red check.

Sandals may be worn as long as they have a strap – no flip flops please.

Sun hats/caps may be worn at break times and lunch times.

As we are unable to apply sunscreen to your child, please ensure that you apply it before they come to school.

PLEASE LABEL YOUR CHILD'S CLOTHES AS THINGS DO GO ASTRAY

Jewellery

Children are not permitted to wear items of jewellery. They may wear studs or sleepers if they have their ears pierced. Earrings which cannot be removed by a child will be covered with micropore tape for PE lessons. Other personal items such as wristwatches may be worn but the school accepts no responsibility for their safety.

Packed Lunch Boxes

Packed lunch boxes must have your child's name marked on the outside and carried in a lunch bag or backpack. Please remember we are a 'Healthy Eating School'.
