General reminders about School Uniform

In summer children may wish to wear blue checked summer dresses or grey shorts.

Please put your child's name on all items of clothing and bring all general equipment in the Meadows rucksack (strictly Year 1 to Year 6) or bookbag (Reception year).

Skirts should be no shorter than knee length.

Please also note that children may not wear any jewellery in school apart from watches and small stud earrings, which must be removed for P.E. lessons. Children must only have their ears pierced at the start of the summer holidays as they will not be allowed to take part in PE with earrings in. 

Long hair should be tied back at all times and any hair decorations should be small and discreet, in the school colours of red and blue.

Mobile phones are not allowed in school except by express permission of the class teacher, in exceptional circumstances.
