  • Royal blue sweatshirt (with or without the school logo)

  • Grey trousers

  • Black or grey socks

  • Sensible plain black school shoes (not trainers) - shoes with velcro fasteners are preferable for younger children until they can tie their own shoe laces without support

  • In summer boys may wear grey shorts

  • Warm waterproof coat with a hood – a coat with a zip is preferable for younger children until they can fasten buttons/other fasteners on their own without support.

 

GIRLS

  • Royal blue sweatshirt or cardigan (with or without the school logo).
  • Tartan skirt/pinafore dress or grey trousers / skirt (tartan items available from Whittakers).

GENERAL REMINDERS

  • Hair past shoulder length should be tied back with sensible bands - blue or black in colour only. No big bows or other excessive head wear will be permitted. Optional school headbands, bobbles and clips are available from Whittakers.

WHAT YOUR CHILD SHOULD BE BRINGING TO SCHOOL:

  • A school book bag (these can be purchased from the office). Other suitable, slim book bags may be used. Please do not add keyrings to school bags as this makes it difficult for them to be stored.

  • As there is no obligation to have the school logo on the uniform, parents may prefer to purchase clothing from other outlets e.g. supermarkets.

  • Second-hand uniform may be available from Rummage Rescuers (please see the leaflet below for further information).
