Uniform
Our uniform is designed to be simple and practical. We are proud to have a school uniform and we hope that our children will wear it with pride as part of our school community.
It is our policy that children wear school uniform every day and having chosen to send your child to a uniform wearing school, we appreciate your cooperation in this.
