We will accept smart, black trainers, plain with no logo as well as black shoes.

We expect children to come to school with clean, brushed hair. Hair bands are to be in school colours. Hopefully hair braiding will not be done during term time. If it is, the hair must be tied back neatly off the face and not swing around and without beading on the end. All those children with long hair are to tie it back during the school day. Hair products should not be worn in hair during the school day, please. If a child gets very hot in PE or on the playground the product drips into eyes and hurts. We also need to ensure that no hair product disrupts the clarity of the swimming pool water. We would be grateful if hair products were kept exclusively for weekends and holidays.

​

No bracelets, necklaces or rings should be worn because of the risk of injury to the wearer or to another child. We follow the Local Authority Health and Safety advice on the wearing of earrings during physical education and swimming. Children will have to remove their own earrings and place them in a small named container. After the physical activity, including swimming, they must replace their own earrings.

Since each class has some form of physical activity at varying times during the week, we advise that earrings are not to be worn in school at any time. If the child cannot remove their own earrings we ask that they are removed at home on the days they have PE or swimming.

Watches can be worn in school but again, will have to be taken off before any activity.

We respectfully ask that ear piercing is done at the beginning of the summer holiday and we would prefer no more than one earring to be worn in each ear during school time. 

All individual items of school uniform (along with coats, hats, footwear and items worn for forest/coastal school) must be labelled with your child’s name. . This means any missing items can be returned to the children by our monitors. All unnamed items go into the lost property box (yellow box) outside the school office, which is emptied fortnightly.
