General...

If you child wishes to bring a 'bag' to school, please be mindful that these need to be small in size as space in the lockers is limited. Children in Years 5 and 6 are allowed to bring a pencil case to school containing their own stationery items.

The above uniform items can be purchased from any large supermarket or retailer such as Asda, Tesco, Morisons or Sainsburys.

Name labels...

Please mark clothes clearly with your child’s name.  It is very easy for children’s clothing to become muddled, causing distress to the child and anxiety to parents and teachers.

Jewellery...

 Pupils are only allowed to wear small, stud earrings and a watch for school. No other jewellery is allowed unless it has religious significance.

All jewellery, including pierced earrings, must be removed for PE and swimming lessons. Staff are not allowed to assist with removal therefore your child needs to be able o do this independently. We would advise no jewellery be worn to school on PE / swimming days to avoid any problems with removing items.
