Children should come to school dressed in their PE kit on PE days.
We ask that children do not bring bags such as rucksacks or kitbags as our storage space is limited and bags left on the floor may cause a hazard. Please make sure that all coats have a strong hanging tab in them.
Watches, studs and sleepers may be worn, but for health and safety reasons, no other jewellery is permitted. Also, for safety reasons, earrings must be removed, by the child before any P.E. lesson. If a child is wearing earrings that cannot be removed, they must bring micropore tape to cover them during P.E. lessons.
ALL items of clothing must be clearly named. We encourage and train the children to look after their belongings, but young children sometimes misplace and lose things. If items are named we can reunite them with the owner, saving expense and ‘searching’ time. We have a lost property box in the lobby between the Mapgies and Kestrels' classrooms, which parents may wish to look through when clothes are mislaid.
Forest Schools and Playtime
Children in EYFS require waterproof trousers, jackets and wellington boots for use on the field and the forest schools’ area all year round. The above should be brought to school in a named drawstring bag. Parents can purchase a branded drawstring bag with the school logo, alongside our other school uniform which is a very cost effective option.
All children require wellington boots.
Protective Clothing
Aprons for art activities, water play and cookery are provided in each class.
