Each child is assigned to one of the four school teams (red, blue, green or yellow) and they should weara school PE T-shirt of the appropriate colour.  Siblings are always allocated the same team colour. Shorts should be navy or black.  Trainers may be worn for outdoor games.  Warm tracksuits are needed during cold weather for outdoor games.

Jewellery and Hair Accessories

For reasons of safety, children are not permitted to wear jewellery.  This includes earrings, necklaces, wristbands, ankle bands, brooches or badges.  If you consider that your child may have special reasons to wear jewellery, please write a letter of explanation to the Headteacher, for consideration.

If their ears have been recently pierced then small studs may be worn but these must be covered with tape / plaster for PE lessons, which must be supplied from home.

Hair accessories should be black or blue discreet hair ties, hair bands and hair grips/clips. Large bows or novelty hair bands are not to be worn to school.
