N.B. Shoes should have a flat sole and ankle support to be suitable for an active day in school. Sandals should have closed toes and a closed heel for safety reasons. (‘Crocs’ are not suitable for school).

We encourage children to wear wellington boots, in wet weather or when it is particulary muddy outside. Children are expected to change from their wellingtons into either trainers or shoes when they are in the school building.

Large shirt or plain T-shirt: Any colour, as a cover-up for activities in Art, Technology or Science.

Sunhat or cap: Essential for summer breaktimes and PE/Games lessons in hot weather.

Wellington Boots: Please name them, with the family surname..

All items of school uniform and PE kit should be clearly named; either with a nametag or biro on a label (please renew this at intervals). You may also wish to identify them with a special button, as this really helps younger children who struggle to read their own name.
