School Uniform

We believe that school uniform looks smart, wears well and contributes to a sense of belonging to the school.  Please name all clothing so that, if found, we can reunite it with the child. Our uniform consists of:

 

EYFS/Key Stage 1 children

Navy blue school sweatshirt, grey or black trousers or skirt, white polo t shirt and sensible flat black shoes. Trainers may be worn only if they are completely black.  (no open toes or boots). Sweatshirts may be purchased at the school or online. Grey/Black trousers and skirts are available from school uniform stockists, and most chain stores.

 

Key stage 2 children

Navy blue knitted jumper/cardigan, formal white shirt with a collar and a tie. Grey/Black trousers or skirt and sensible flat black shoes. Trainers may be worn only if they are completely black.  (no open toes or boots). A selection of Jumpers/Cardigans and ties are available through the school office. Grey/Black trousers and skirts are available from school uniform stockists and most chain stores.

 

 In wet and wintery weather, children can come to school in wellington boots and change into their school shoes, we have storage for their boots during the school day. We ask that all children leave a pair of wellington boots in school for our daily OPAL sessions.

Children are required to have a PE. Kit. They are expected to wear a plain white t-shirt and black shorts or jogging bottoms. On PE days, children come to school in their PE kits and can wear a school cardigan or black sweatshirt (no hood) in colder weather.

Earrings must be removed for all physical education in accordance with the recommendations of the Department for Education and Skills.  If children wear earrings in school, they must be studs only.

All Elveden uniform can be ordered online through ‘Brigade’, details available from the school office.

 

For swimming lessons

Children will require a one-piece swimsuit and towel in a waterproof bag. Hats are also required. No hair gel, talcum powder or money is permitted. Please make sure your child has a warm coat on swimming days in the colder months. Swimming is part of the curriculum and therefore, if children are fit enough to come to school, they must also swim. If, however, there is a medical reason to the contrary, a letter from your doctor should be sent to school. In such cases children will remain at school.

All children in main school need to have a pair of named, black plimsolls which stay in school and will be worn inside.

 

Please can we ask that children come to school with natural hair colour only, no shaved patterns in hair or nail varnish/make-up.
