Taking pride in school is important and one way of showing this and sharing a sense of identity is through the wearing of school uniform and general appearance. Although not compulsory you can purchase the logo’ed uniform through PMG schoolwear based in New Milton. Non logo'ed items may be purchased from other high street retailers.

Other opportunities to purchase school uniform include:

• The school office. We reserve the right to sell any unnamed/unclaimed lost property to parents requesting used uniform from the school office. We don't have facilities to keep lost property indefinitely - so after a minimum of 6 weeks unclaimed items will be considered a donation to the school and we will sale them in aid of our current fundraising project.
• If you are having are unable to obtain your child's uniform for any reason then please pop into the school for an informal conversation and we can point you into the right direction - we have a variety of resources available. This includes a number of pre-loved uniform we are able to provide free of charge.

PE Days
 

A reminder of our PE Days (Jan 2023) so that you can ensure your child's PE Kit is in school.
 

• Harriers – Tuesday & Wednesday
• Red Kites – Tuesday & Friday
• Falcons – Monday & Wednesday
• Kestrels – Thursday & Friday
• Owls – Monday & Thursday

Children should have their PE kit in school everyday, just in case of a day change, or if a change of clothes are needed.

Phones and electronic devices (tablets, computers etc)

• These are not encouraged in school and we do not except any responsibilty towards them.
• As a rule no child should bring a mobile phone or other electronic items into school.
• We do, however, appreciate that there may be occasional times when your child may need a mobile phone for an after school event or walking home. If this is the case, please ensure that the child hands in their phone to the office for safekeeping at the beginning of the day.
• They can then collect at home time.
• Smart watches cannot be worn during the school day due to their value and their capacity for recording, photography, internet and messaging.  Please make sure your child does not wear these watches to school. We are grateful for your support with this

Toys in School

• We discourage this as far as possible, as they can be broken or lost. We have a clear rule that swapping is not allowed.
• As a school we provide balls and outside toys for break time activities.  We therefore ask that no balls are brought in from home.

Please note:  Any high value items (emotionally or finanically) should not be brought into school.

• Please ensure ALL school uniform is labelled.
• We cannot be held responsible for items lost.
• The PTA / School office will sell unwanted school uniform during cake sales and fundraising events, and via the school office.

If you discover your child has lost something, please encourage them to think where they left it, to look for it - you are welcome to come and help them look and then ask in lost property. If it is clearly labelled then we will try and reunite if with your child.

Unclaimed loss property will be kept for a minium of 6 weeks, so please make sure you claim missing items promptly.

Please note:  Any high value items (emotionally or finanically) should not be brought into school.
