We have a school dress code which is worn by all children.
Please make sure all items of clothing are clearly marked with your child’s name.
Footwear: Black school shoes and no labels.
Jewellery: Pupils may wear a wristwatch (not a smartwatch). Children can wear stud earrings but these must be able to be removed for P.E. If you intend your child to have their ears pierced we request that this is done at the start of the summer break as newly pierced ears cannot have the studs removed for some weeks. Also, please note that children are not permitted to wear nail varnish in school.
PE Lessons: For health and hygiene reasons we ask the children to bring a change of clothes for PE. We have a school dress code for PE for all children in Key Stages 1 and 2 which consist of a navy blue or white t shirt and black shorts. These should be named and kept in a drawstring bag which can be hung easily in the cloakroom. Warm clothing (e.g. sweatshirts and jogging bottoms with trainers or plimsolls) should be worn for outdoor lessons. Children in Key Stage 2 will need a swimming costume for swimming lessons at Graves Leisure Centre. Parents will be notified when these will be required. Children are expected to have their PE kit in school at all times. Teachers will remind them at the end of each half-term to take them to be washed.
PE is an integral part of the curriculum and every child is expected to participate fully, unless they are unable to take part for medical reasons. In such cases parents/carers should provide a supporting letter.
Personal Possessions: Children should not bring valuables/toys to school unless they form part of a class activity. Neither teachers nor the school can accept responsibility should any personal items be lost, damaged or stolen.
Book bags should be brought each day.
Uniform can be ordered via the Logo Leisure Website or from Pinders SchoolWear in Crystal Peaks Shopping Centre. Please note: we do not expect the school logo to be on uniform as we recognise this can drastically reduce the cost for parents and carers.
Please speak to the school office if you have any concerns about uniform.
