School Uniform

We ask children to wear a compulsory school uniform. We take pride in our appearance and feel it is important we all demonstrate our belonging to the school by wearing our uniform with pride. However, we are an outdoorsy, adventurous school. We will be outside in all weathers and so we have selected a uniform which we feel reflects this.

We run a swap shop of uniform in the holidays. We ask if your child grows out of clothing and you are looking to donate this, that you consider donating it to us in the main office. If you are looking for items of new to you clothing pop in to our free swap shop any Thursday of the holidays.
