Uniform

At King William Street C.E. Primary School we encourage all of our learners to take a pride in their appearance. Our school policy is that all children wear school uniform when attending school and when participating in school-organised events outside normal school hours. We feel that wearing a school uniform fosters a sense of identity and belonging, promotes the ethos of the school and is a way of showing that the children are ready, respectful and safe.

We have thought carefully about our school uniform and have chosen it to be comfortable and practical for primary aged children, whilst also being affordable for families.

We also hold termly second hand sales in school. There is no charge for the items, however if parents would like to give a donation, it would be greatly received. (All monies donated will go towards the children and their learning).

School Bags

Royal blue reading book bags are required for children in Blue Whale, Tiger and Puffin classes. These can be purchased from www.kingwilliam.reshop.co.uk .

Children in Panda, Polar Bear, Zebra and Leopard should bring a suitable bag to school in which to put their homework and reading book. This must fit inside a locker.

Accessories and Jewellery

Hair accessories such as slides, ribbons, bobbles, etc, should be fairly simple and in school colours.

Hair style should avoid being extreme in style and we ask that children do not have their hair dyed/coloured.

Children must not wear makeup.

Children are allowed to wear one pair of plain, small stud earrings in the lobe of each ear. These must be removed by the child before PE lessons. If they are unable to remove earrings themselves, please provide your child with plasters or tape which they can use to cover up their own earrings before PE lessons.

Watches may be worn but these must be removed for any PE activity. Smart watches or any other type of watch that can access the internet may not be worn.

Lost Property

Any unidentified items of school uniform will be placed in Lost Property. Children are encouraged to look there to reclaim lost property, on the understanding that the found item will be clearly named. Children can become upset as a result of lost clothing. Please help us to reunite lost items of clothing with their owners by labelling items with your child’s name.
