School Uniform
We have a school uniform, this not only looks very smart, but also promotes a positive image of the school. You can buy some of the uniform from the school office. Please ensure that ALL items of school clothing are named – this enables us to return lost items quickly and easily!
Buying school uniform
Our school uniform is available from Steady School and Sportswear. School uniform can either be ordered online or you can visit their shop at 29 Holderness Road, Hull, HU8 7NA. You can also buy uniform from any other shops in line with the policy.

Foundation Stage
Uniform is optional but preferred for Nursery. Reception are expected to wear school uniform and they also need a pair of wellingtons to keep in school.
PE
The school provides PE kit (shorts and t-shirts and/or tracksuit) which is washed at school each week. Sandshoes or trainers should be worn for games lessons. Gymnastics and dance should be done in bare feet. Children who do not have appropriate footwear will not be able to participate.
Jewellery
The school policy is that jewellery except for stud earrings and watches should not be worn at school.
Bags
Due to the limited amount of storage space children should only bring school book bags (which are available to purchase from the website link above) and packed lunch boxes/bags into school. We do not have facilities to store other larger bags and these quickly become a health and safety hazard if they are brought into school.
