What should my child wear?

Learning outdoors plays an important part of school life. Only very wet weather keeps us indoors.  We ask that all children are sent to school with a water proof coat (hat and gloves when necessary) and a pair of wellington boots and waterproof pants in September to be kept in school.

On sunny days please apply sun cream before your child comes to school we may also ask for you to send labelled sun cream in to school so we can reapply during summer months.

Pupils are generally discouraged from wearing jewellery in school. During PE and swimming, pupils wearing any form of jewellery must remove them or have them taped over if they cannot be removed.

Pupils with a verruca can go swimming and take part in PE but must wear a protective verruca sock.

Please send in swimming wear, swim nappies and a towel when your child is due to swim.

All pupils are encouraged to wear the school uniform as listed below:

School Uniform

Purple White Ash Sweatshirt with school logo

Purple or White Polo Shirt (logo optional)
