School Uniform

What a child wears to school reflects his/her learning. Wearing a uniform is a badge of pride, creates an identity for a school and is an important part of being a school child. It also portrays the school’s ethos and shared positive values. We have a smart uniform that all children are expected to wear. It is also important for children to wear the correct clothing for physical activities. For PE, children are required to wear the correct PE Kit.

 

Our uniform service provides both personalised items that are only available online via our school uniform supplier, ties, sweaters and bags, as well as some items that can be bought elsewhere such as gloves, scarves and hats.   Prices are kept as close to cost as possible. Non-logo items such as trousers, shorts, skirts, dresses and PE items can be purchased at retail outlets such as John Lewis, Marks & Spencer and most large supermarket stores.   

 

Second-hand uniform

Second-hand uniform sales take place in the PTA Room on a monthly basis, your Rep will tell you exactly when. You can buy, at very reasonable prices, nearly new school uniform. We strongly encourage that you use this service as it is not only economically a good idea, it is also better for the environment. Save the pounds and the planet.    

 

Please visit the second hand uniform online shop. Orders will be bagged, clearly labelled and will be left in the school office for collection.  A fulfillment email will be sent when your order is ready.

 

Good quality, clean donations are gratefully received.  Please leave bagged in the school office.
