• No Skin fades with ‘no blade / zero’ and no hair should be shorter than a No 2. Any braid style that exposes the scalp is NOT allowed.

P.E Kit:

• Our PE kit enables black leggings to be worn with a small logo. Logos should not extend down the full leg. N.B. Leggings are not permitted to be worn as part of normal school uniform.
• Long black football socks for the times when Tag Rugby/Football takes place and children would like to wear shinpads/long socks – these can also be worn in general PE lessons.
• We suggest that dark-coloured trainers are worn so that any sport which takes place on the field does not cause staining/discolouration.
• For swimming – there will be an expectation that all children with long hair wear a swimming cap.
• Boys – Swimming shorts
• Girls – Swimming costume and swimming cap
• Goggles – All children
• Flip flops/footwear for the poolside – All children
• Towel
• Occasionally, children are asked to bring in old clothes/pyjamas for life-saving lessons.

Please Note:

• Leggings are not permitted as part of normal school uniform – they can only be worn on PE days (excluding swimming days)
• Striped tracksuits are not permitted
• Jewellery must not be worn on P.E days: this limits the chances of children losing any items they need to remove.
• If children wear their school jumper or cardigan, or PE fleece, we recommend wearing a coat over the top for breaktimes, particularly the cooler weather is approaching.
• If children have indoor P.E, they may wish to wear shorts under their jogging bottoms too.
