The staff and Governors believe that a school uniform fosters a sense of pride in our school, and we encourage all our children to take responsibility for their appearance. All items of clothing and personal property should be clearly named. The school colours are royal blue and white.
The official school uniform provider is School Trends. The uniform can be purchased from their website: www.schooltrendsonline.com
Uniform
- White polo shirt with long or short sleeves.
- Royal blue sweatshirt or cardigan (either plain or with the school logo)
- Grey or black skirt, pinafore or trousers (jogger type trousers are not appropriate for wear during the school day).
- Tights/socks must be plain white, grey or black.
- In the summer, a blue checked dress is optional, with plain white socks or tights.
Footwear
- Suitable black school shoes with black laces (no heels or trainers).
- Children may bring trainers to change into for playtime if they are playing games.
Long hair must be tied back.
Hats, Coats and Book Bags
Parents may choose to purchase summer/winter coats, baseball or legionnaire summer caps, woollen hats and book bags with the school logo from School Trends.
Physical Education
Children are expected to wear their PE kit, including appropriate footwear on the set PE days.
Each child needs:
- T-shirt in their House colour. These can be ordered from Amazon by clicking here. The colours for each house are:
- Copse: Sunflower Grove: Royal Blue Heath: Red Spinney: Kelly Green
- Plain dark blue or black shorts; and trainers (plimsolls are optional for indoor wear).

Earrings must be taped or, ideally removed for PE and must be removed for swimming. Children should bring their own Microporous Surgical Tape to school in a clearly named box. If a child wearing earrings does not have any tape, they will NOT be permitted to take part in the PE lesson and a letter will be sent home.
For swimming, girls need a one-piece costume and boys require traditional trunks. All children must wear a hat, which can be purchased for £1.00 from the school office.
Nail varnish, make-up and tattoos are not permitted.
Jewellery should not be worn to school.
Portable electronic devices including mobile phones, MP3 players and games consoles are not permitted in school (unless agreed with the class teacher and handed over to staff for the duration of the school day),
