General Information 

Uniform: Please make sure that all school uniform and PE kit is clearly labelled as it helps the children to identify their own belongings. Your child should have appropriate clothing for outdoor play in all weathers, including waterproof coats when rain is forecast. Please refer to our school uniform policy for clarification of uniform requirements. 

PE: PE sessions will be on Wednesdays and Thursdays. 

On P.E. days, children will need to come to school wearing their kit as follows: 

• PE T-Shirt: plain T-shirt in your child's house colour or school logo optional*
• PE shorts or PE jogging trousers: plain dark blue or black. No logos.
• PE Hoodie: royal blue with school logo*
• Trainers (plain black only)

* These items can be purchased from Price-Buckland.co.uk

 P.E. will be mostly outside, so please ensure your children have warm joggers and jumpers for cold days. Trainers are preferred as they provide better support and tend to be more waterproof than plimsolls.

Medication: Please let the school and your child's class teacher know if your child has any condition requiring medication, including allergies or asthma. If your child needs to be on a course of medication, please complete the relevant form which is kept in the school office.
