On PE days children can arrive at school in PE kits, they will not need to wear school uniform on these days.

Jewellery is not to be worn in school. The accidental pulling and catching of earrings, rings and necklaces during play can cause severe damage to fingers and ear lobes! Children will be asked to remove earrings or tape over studs during P.E./Games activities if worn to school. Children should not wear jewellery on a P.E. / or Games day. The school cannot accept responsibility for the loss or damage of items of jewellery and watches.

Long hair must be tied back in school for reasons of health and hygiene.

Items of value

We ask parents to ensure that items of value are not brought to school. This includes expensive watches, electronic goods, mobile phones etc.

It also makes life easier for everyone if all clothing including shoes and watches (if they have to be worn) are clearly marked with your child's name. That way if items are misplaced and then found they can be quickly returned totheir owner.
