SCHOOL UNIFORM
The school uniform colours are navy and gold. It is hoped that parents will make every effort to ensure their children are dressed appropriately.
WINTER
Gold polo shirt*
Navy trousers/navy skirt/navy pinafore
Navy Sweatshirt*
SUMMER
Navy shorts/navy trousers/navy skirt/navy pinafore
Gold polo shirt*
Yellow check or striped dress
All children will also need a PE kit of navy shorts, navy t-shirt*, trainers and plain blue tracksuit. PE kit should be worn into school on PE days and sports club days, as there will be no changing of clothes in school on any day.
*Distinctive items of school clothing, as well as book bags, PE bags and painting aprons, may be purchased either in store from Schoolwearplus at Unit 1, The Bringy Business and Antique Centre, Great Baddow, Chelmsford, CM2 7JW or online at www.schoolwearplus.com. Navy caps may also be purchased online via Scopay (£7 each). Please email the office once you have purchased a cap so that we can confirm when this is ready to collect. The rest of the uniform can be purchased from most chain stores. Please make sure that all items of clothing are clearly marked with your child’s name.
No responsibility is accepted by the school for the loss of, or damage to, personal property.
FOOTWEAR
Children should wear plain black trainers every day (logos should be subtle, preferably black, and in KS1 trainers should have Velcro fastenings), dark socks or white socks.
JEWELLERY/EARRINGS
No jewellery should be worn to school except for watches and earrings. Earrings should only be studs or sleepers and must be removed for all PE activities. Teachers are not permitted to remove or replace any earrings and therefore, it is strongly recommended that young children do not wear them to school.
REMINDER
Long/Shoulder length hair should be tied back at all times for health and safety reasons.
We would also suggest that your child’s hair is checked regularly for head lice and treated, if necessary, before attending school. We ask that hair styles should be ‘standard’ and that the more exciting styles be left to the summer holiday.
