The school's emblem is the fleur de lys. Governors ask that all children wear the embroidered school emblem on their jumper or cardigan. These garments are available from the school. The emblem on the blue polo shirt is optional.
The school's colours are Royal Blue and Silver Grey.
School uniform - girls
Winter - Grey skirt, pinafore dress or tailored grey trousers with a pale blue open necked blouse or pale blue collared polo shirt. Royal blue v-necked pullover or cardigan. Grey tights or grey or white socks.
Summer - Royal blue and white checked gingham dress. White socks (long or short - but not trainer socks).
School uniform - boys
Summer and winter - Pale blue collared polo shirt. Short or long grey trousers (not jeans or cords). Royal blue v-necked pullover. Grey socks (not trainer socks).
Physical Education - boys and girls
It is most important that children get into the habit of changing for all PE lessons - indoor or outdoor.
Royal blue shorts, plimsolls and plain white t-shirt (we hold stocks in school of suitable white t-shirts with the school emblem). Classes 3 to 6 need trainers for outdoor work, and white socks for inside and out. During the winter months teachers may advise the wearing of a tracksuit for outdoor work.
Swimming
Children from Year 2 to Year 6 swim weekly for one term each year. All children need a costume or trunks, a swimming hat and towel contained in a waterproof bag.
Outer garments
During the colder weather children need a smart, warm and rainproof coat. Please try and stick to plain colours. A strong loop in the neck of an outer garment helps to ensure it hangs on the peg and not on the floor!
Footwear
Flat, black shoes - no boots, high heels or clogs please! Heels must not be more than 2cm. Sandals may be worn in the summer - black, navy, blue or white, but please ensure that if possible toes are covered, that there is proper support for the heel and that heels are no higher than 2cm.
Additional information (Concerning uniform, clothing, money and jewellery) We do not have an official school outfitter, but we do sell our school jumpers, cardigans, polo shirts and t-shirts at cost. All large stores can give useful help with clothing matters.
Please make sure children dress for occasion, especially in extremes of weather conditions.
For Classes 3 to 6, please provide an 'overall' type of garment (one of Dad's old shirts will suffice, worn back to front with Velcro for buttons) or an apron to help protect good clothing during messy tasks. For the younger children, aprons are provided. A bag to hold your child's possessions in is also useful. The traditional shoe bag with a drawstring top is still the best because it fits on the peg provided. We have such items in stock.
Please mark every item of your child's clothing and property with his/her name. We will search carefully for marked property, but obviously to look for unmarked items wastes valuable time and energy. You would be amazed at the number of new items of clothing we find that is unnamed. If unclaimed, all unmarked items are disposed of.
No loaning or borrowing of each other's clothing is allowed.
Jewellery: The wearing of watches is permitted, but we can accept no responsibility for loss, damage or theft. Only studs or sleeper earrings are allowed to be worn whilst in school. Earrings must not be worn for any PE or swimming activity. If you are intending getting your child's ears pierced then the best time to do this is at the beginning of the summer holidays, when the ears have time to heal with the studs in.
Money: We also discourage the carrying of money, except for specific school purposes. Money for school lunches, any activity, outings etc. should be sent to school in a sealed envelope or purse with the child's name, the amount inside and what the cash is for, all written on the envelope or on a piece of paper inside the purse. All cheques should be made payable to Suffolk County Council.
