Uniform
Our uniform is unusual and distinctive. All items can be purchased from Brenda’s of Camberley
(telephone 01276 469697 or
.
Please ensure that clothing is marked clearly with your child's name. Identical articles of
clothing are hard to identify. It is extremely time consuming searching for named articles and
very frustrating when there is no labelling. Time spent searching for lost clothes is time spent
not teaching.
School uniform is a unifying factor and also an equaliser in a school. We ask you to keep
strictly to the agreed uniform. Children wear shoes in school and not trainers which are quite
inappropriate with school uniform except for lunchtime play. We ask that a pair of average
priced black and white trainers are brought to school for playtime which cannot be construed in
anyway to be desirable/designer/outstanding.
Footwear is the most difficult aspect of
uniform to maintain because fashion dictates
certain styles which become overwhelmingly
important to children as 'image promoters'.
This causes envy amongst children and
unfortunate circumstances can develop. I
feel sure that parents will understand and
help the school to maintain traditional values.
Children with medium to long hair (shoulder
length) should keep their hair tied back and
off their faces during the school day using
hair ties in school colours i.e. green or
brown. Short hair must be shaved no lower
than a Grade 3 cut and have no patterns
added.
A full list of uniform requirements can be
obtained from the school office or found on
our website.
