School Uniform
Uniform ensures that all children are dressed smartly and sensibly. We also believe that uniform wears well, costs less than "fashion wear", and contributes to a feeling of belonging to the school. Please ensure that all clothing is clearly labelled with your child's name.
Parents have been consulted on school uniforms and the overwhelming message was that parents were keen to have a uniform and maintain traditional colours. It is not necessary to buy items which carry the school logo, as long as children are following the uniform guidance given below.
