School Uniform
The school colours are navy blue, white, grey and black. The children wear navy sweatshirts with the school logo and a white shirt/blouse or polo shirt. During the summer a blue gingham dress can be worn.
Our PE kit has blue shorts and a t-shirt with the school logo on it. All children will need a change of footwear for PE and another for playtimes on field, which can get muddy at certain times of the year. Children can change into jogging bottoms and a sweatshirt for playtimes if they wish. Children need their own apron, or an overall, to protect clothing from paint and glue during Art lessons. All clothing should be clearly marked with the child’s name. Unless it is playtime or they are participating in a PE or Drama lesson, children should wear black leather school shoes.
