Uniform
We hope you find our uniform highly practical, functional and smart. Through our uniform we emphasise being part of a whole school team. It comprises of the following:
Daily uniform
Grey skirt or pinafore dress.
Grey or black long trousers.
A green sweatshirt or cardigan with school logo.
A white polo shirt with school logo.
White/black socks/tights.
In warmer weather, summer dresses (green and white gingham) or grey smart shorts can be worn. Please ensure your child's shoulders are covered.
If wellingtons or boots are worn during wintertime pupils require a change of shoes for indoor use. We recommend that pupils bring a coat to school most days as our weather is very changeable and they will require a coat during social interaction times.
