School Clothing

We have a simple inexpensive uniform and expect all children to wear it. School is a working environment and it is important that children are dressed in an appropriate and practical way. When children wear a uniform it helps to foster a sense of pride in belonging to their school.

The school colours are royal blue, white and grey. In the winter children wear grey trousers or skirts, white shirts or blouses, and royal blue school sweatshirts.

In the summer girls wear blue gingham dresses or navy shorts, and boys wear blue or grey shorts and polo shirts. Sweatshirts, summer hats, reading book bags, and swimming and P.E. bags are available from school. Please ask in the office for details. 

PE kit should consist of Tshirt, shorts and soft plimsolls in a bag.  A spare pair of trainers is optional for outdoor activities. Swimming kit (including hats for girls) will also be required. All children need an overall for art and craft activities. An adult’s old shirt with the sleeves cut short and elasticised and a tab for hanging up is perfectly suitable. 

All clothing must be named, preferably with sewn nametapes. Assistance with school clothing may be available for parents on Income Support or Family Credit.  A form is available from the school or the Area Education Office.

Finally we ask that trainers are NOT worn for school, although Blue Class children are allowed to wear them for playing games at playtime if they wish.
