We ask that parents provide their children with sensible footwear throughout the year - waterproof black shoes for the winter months, and no ‘sling back’ or ‘flip flop’ style shoes in the summer as these can cause problems for children when they are playing outside. Parents / carers have the responsibility for providing their children with footwear and clothing that is ‘fit for purpose’ and will stand up to the rigours of normal childhood play and activity while at school, including use of the Trim Trail.
P.E. Kit: Navy shorts, red T-Shirt (not football shirt), warm navy tracksuit or joggers/hoody, and trainers.
Please ensure your child has a pair of trainers specifically to be worn for games. We do not allow everyday school shoes to be worn for PE. And outdoor PE trainers are not allowed to be worn during other school lessons.
Long hair will need to be tied back during P.E. lessons and in other lessons where it is considered to be necessary to ensure safety.
Games kit should be available in school all week and taken home on a Friday to be washed. Because of limited cloakroom space we ask that sports bags of a reasonable size are used. Red drawstring PE bags are available from My Clothing as detailed below.
Please label all school clothing/P.E. kit clearly with your child’s name.
Children may wear a watch to school and one pair of stud earrings only. In the interests of health and safety, no other jewellery should be worn to school. Children with pierced ears will be expected to remove earrings before participating in P.E. lessons and we politely request that parents avoid having ears pierced during term time. Where earrings have to be kept in immediately following ear piercing, children will need to put tape over these.
