School Uniform
The school endeavours to ensure that our uniform is as gender neutral as possible.
Our Uniform
The uniform is as follows:
• Red sweatshirt or red cardigan (with or without the school logo)
• White shirt (red and white checked shirt in summer) Nursery/Reception children wear a red or white polo shirt.)
• Grey and red striped tie • Grey or black trousers / shorts (Nursery/Reception children wear grey/black trousers/shorts/joggers.)
• Grey or black skirt or pinafore (in summer, a red and white summer dress may be worn), shorts •
Black, sensible shoes (Velcro fastenings are acceptable.)
• Grey, black or white socks
• Grey, black or red tights
Trainers, open-toed sandals and large, thick boots are not considered suitable footwear for school. High heels are not permitted: sensible, plain black shoes must be worn by both boys and girls. Black jeans and leggings are not permitted in day-today uniform. All items of clothing and footwear must be labelled with the pupil’s name.
Our PE Kit
Children are asked to bring their PE kit to school on the day of their PE lesson. Parents/carers are responsible for ensuring their child is dressed appropriately for PE.
The PE kit is as follows:
• Plain red T-shirt (with or without the school logo)
• Red zipped hoody or sweatshirt or normal school jumper
• Black tracksuit bottoms or leggings
• Black shorts (in summer)
• Plain, suitable trainers or black pumps
Plain jogging bottoms, hoodies/sweatshirts are preferred. However, a small, branded logo is acceptable. All items of clothing and footwear must be labelled with the pupil’s name.
Nursery/Reception children do not wear a specific PE kit. On PE days they can wear appropriate shorts/joggers with their top half uniform and trainers.
Forest School
On days when Treetops children are involved in Forest School activities they can attend school in weather appropriate trousers – eg joggers in winter. They should wear top half uniform and bring wellies/appropriate boots to change into for the activities. They should also have appropriate coats/hats for the time of year.
Jewellery
The only permitted jewellery that may be worn is: • One pair of earrings (no other piercings are permitted) • A sensible wristwatch Jewellery is the responsibility of the pupil and not the school. Lost or damaged items will not be refunded. All jewellery must be removed during practical lessons, for example, PE lessons / swimming lessons. If children cannot remove their own earrings, then this should be done at home on the day of PE.
School Bag
Pupils must use an appropriately sized waterproof bag to carry their books and equipment. It should hold children’s books and reading diaries comfortably without causing any damage. Large bags / large rucksacks are discouraged for day-to-day lessons due to space on children’s pegs. School bags featuring inappropriate images, slogans or phrases are not permitted. The school will not be liable for lost or damaged school bags.
Water Bottle
Children should bring a water bottle into school every day: this can be refilled by children whenever necessary during the day. Water bottles must be labelled with the pupil’s name.
