What do I need to bring to school?

1. PE Kit

PE day is a Monday and Friday. PE kits can stay in school for the whole half term and will be sent home, for a wash, at the end of each half term.

PE uniform is on our school website.

2. A clearly named lunch box if your child is not having a hot meal

Lunch will be taken in the school hall in our allocated time of 11.50. We will still be helping the children to cut up their food and playing an active role in helping them learn table manners. Some children are naturally slow eaters. If you know that your child eats slowly we would appreciate your cooperation in helping them to gently understand why we need them to focus on eating up their lunch.

3. A named clearly named, filled water bottle.

(This needs to go home on a daily basis so it can be re-filled at home with fresh water) Please note that this water bottle is in addition to the one they may have with their packed lunch. 

4. A clearly named book bag.

Please provide a carrier bag (or similar) containing a spare pair of knickers/pants and socks in case of any little accidents!

5. Appropriate and named outer wear (even gloves and scarves) (coat, jacket, hat, gloves, scarf etc.).

As you know the English weather is very changeable and a sunny morning can turn into a cold, wet afternoon! Please ensure your child has suitable clothing for the day ahead as children can spend a lot of time working and playing outside.

Labelling

PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE ensure that everything your child brings into school is clearly labelled. This includes all clothes, shoes, coats (including scarves and gloves) bags, lunch boxes and water bottles. It is very difficult to return property to the rightful owner if it is un-named.
