School Uniform
What a child wears to school reflects their learning and their attitude towards school. It also portrays the school’s ethos and shared positive values. It is our aim to ensure that all children wear their school uniform correctly and with pride.
Our School Uniform
Our school uniform consists of the following:
- Black or grey trousers, skirt or pinafore (no tracksuit type trousers or leggings)
- White polo shirt or white blouse
- Red sweatshirt or cardigan
- White or grey socks or red tights
- Black sensible shoes (no high heels, trainers, Flossies, canvas shoes/boots, UGG boots, flip flops or sandals)
During the summer months a red/white gingham checked dress or short black or grey trousers can be worn.
Wellies are great to wear to come to school in bad weather and are also needed for Forest School however they should not be worn all day. Shoes must be brought into school to change into.
