Jewellery

Earrings - one small stud or ring may be worn in each ear.  These will be required to be covered during PE during the 6-week healing period only.  After a 6-week healing period, children who are unable to take their own earrings out at school need to leave them at home on PE days - Please be aware: we are unable to support with removing earrings or putting them in.

Wrist watches are permitted – but will need to be removed for PE. No other jewellery is permitted in school. Children will be reminded of this as required by staff.

 

PE Kit

Full labelled indoor and outdoor PE kit is required.  However, in order to maximise learning time and reduce timetable pressure, we ask that - other than in Foundation Stage* - children come to school dressed ready for PE.

*As part of their wider learning journey with us, our Foundation aged children will be asked to change in school.

Indoor PE Kit - plain clothing items, no logo

We appreciate that because we are asking the children (other than Foundation Stage) to come to school dressed ready for PE, as the weather changes and gets cooler, hoodies and plain jogging bottoms or tracksuits will become appropriate.

Clothing - as per table above, if weather enables

As weather changes… plain navy / black tracksuit or joggers and sweatshirt / hoodie

Games (clubs) Kit

Children involved in games outside of their PE lessons – i.e. netball, cross-country and football clubs - will be required to wear the appropriate footwear.
