We encourage our children to wear school uniform as it fosters a sense of belonging to the school community and pride in being part of the school family. It is not compulsory for children to wear the school uniform, however we believe that appropriate school clothing engenders a more positive attitude to work.
Our school uniform is as follows:
- Grey Trousers, Grey Shorts, Grey Pinafore Dresses or Grey Skirts
- White Shirts or White Polo Shirts
- Royal Blue Cardigans, Sweatshirts or Fleeces
- Blue and White Striped or Gingham Dresses
Shoes
Children must wear shoes that are appropriate for a day in school. Clogs, flips-flops and trainers are not acceptable nor are any shoes with high heels or platform soles. Summer shoes should be suitable for playground activities and have covered toes for safety. All children will require Wellington Boots in school for outdoor learning activities.
PE Kit
All children need adequate clothing for outdoor play and outdoor PE lessons throughout the year.
For PE lessons we recommend the following:
- Navy blue jogging trousers and royal blue school sweatshirt or navy blue hoodie in winter.
- Navy blue shorts and a ‘Parley First School’ royal blue T-shirt in summer.
- Trainers for outdoor activities.
All clothing worn or used in school must be clearly labelled with your child’s name, even their shoes and trainers!
A pair of wellington boots is required for outdoor activities, These will remain at school.
Where to buy:
School sweatshirts with the school logo and some other uniform items may be purchased through The West Moors Uniform Shop.
