Giles Brook Primary School

Uniform

Our school has chosen to have a uniform as we believe that it establishes a strong group identity and sense of equality and helps to create a purposeful working environment.

The school uniform colours are navy blue, grey and white.

We have a very distinctive logo of a damselfly on our school sweatshirts, cardigans and T-shirts, which are available from the school office. Order forms can be collected from the reception and cheque's or cash should be returned with the order. A main order will be made once per term; we carry a small stock for mid-term requirements;

Boys

• navy blue sweatshirt
• grey trousers
• white polo shirt

Girls

• navy blue sweatshirt or cardigan
• grey skirts, pinafores or trousers
• white polo shirt or blouse
• dark blue and white checked/striped summer dresses

 

P.E. kit

• navy blue shorts and a white T-shirt.

There is also the opportunity to purchase navy blue fleece jackets with the school logo for outdoor wear, for adults and children.

Children should be sent to school in appropriate footwear, i.e. shoes or sandals, not trainers. In winter, if Wellington boots are worn to school, please ensure that your child has indoor footwear to change into.

Indoor P.E.

Children work barefoot for indoor P.E./movement. Long hair will need to be tied back for safety reasons. We ask that either children do not wear ear-rings to school on the days they have P.E or that they cover them with a plaster or Micropore tape for P.E. lessons. The school will take no responsibility for accidents directly related to the wearing of ear-rings.

Outdoor P.E .

In addition to the above, plimsolls or trainers will be needed.

In Key Stage 1, it is highly unlikely that outdoor activities will take place between the end of October and the beginning of April, so plimsolls will mainly be needed for the summer period. Children in Key Stage 2 should bring footwear for P.E. throughout the year. Children should bring their P.E. kit in a ‘drawstring' type bag. The bag and all items of clothing must be clearly labelled with the name of your child.

Protective clothing

Aprons for art and craft activities and cookery will be provided by the school. Any old shirts suitable for use by the children would be much appreciated
