Uniform
All children are encouraged to take pride in their appearance and to gain a sense of identity and belonging by wearing our school uniform.
School uniform is optional in our Nursery class. Book Bags are required.

Please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly named. This ensures that lost property can be returned to pupils quickly.
Jewellery & watches
The only jewellery that may be worn is a pair of small, plain gold or silver stud earrings, with no additions. These should either be removed for PE lessons or should be taped up. The wearing of all other jewellery is not permitted. Pupils may wear discreet wrist watches, providing that they fit under the child's jumper and that they are not toy/game watches or smartwatches which connect to the internet.
Hair
Long hair (below shoulder length) should be tied back and be kept off the face using a hairband, hair clips or hair ties. Large or highly decorative hair accessories are not appropriate for school.
Nail varnish and make-up
Children should not wear make-up or nail varnish. If children use lip salve, they should make sure that it is not glossy or coloured. Teachers will ask children to keep the lip salve in their bags during the day.
