Sports Kit
On the day your child has a PE lesson they should wear their PE kit to school, which should consist of the following (all required):- Plain Black joggers, shorts or skort (no logos)
- A T-shirt with short sleeves in the child's house colour (Barrie - Yellow, Potter - Red, Henley- Blue and Rowling - Green)
- Pupils should wear their school sweatshirt/ cardigan

Forest School Kit
If your child’s class is doing Forest School, we will advise you in the newsletter as well as on this page.
On the day they have Forest School please send your child to school with a long sleeved top, trousers/joggers, wellies and an additional coat/waterproofs that may potentially become muddy or damaged due to the very practical nature of forest school activities. Several layers are required during the colder months.
If you are unable to provide your child with an additional coat for Forest School, we will presume you are happy for them to wear the coat that they wear to and from school, even though it may get damaged.
Jewellery & Hair Accessories
- Watches may be worn as they have an educational value but they are worn under parental responsibility. Apple Watches or similar SMART devices are not allowed.
- Children whose ears have been pierced may wear a small stud, but under no circumstances should pendant or hoop earrings be worn to school, as they are a potential danger in the playground and in P.E. and games lessons.
- Local Authority policy requires those pupils who do wear ear studs, remove them for games and PE activities, if they are unable to do so, then they will be asked to tape them up for health and safety reasons.
- Hair bands and clips in school colours (plain green, grey, black and white) may be worn to tie long hair up but these should be small and unobtrusive. Fashion hair accessories are not permitted.
- The wearing of extreme fashion haircuts, nail varnish, make-up, tattoos and jewellery in school (including rings and bracelets) is not allowed.
The school can take no responsibility for the loss of valuable possessions.
School Bags & Pencil Cases
A small rucksack can be brought to school but children are not required to bring in a pencil case. All stationery will be provided in class.
