Please note we take pride in our school uniform.   The class teacher / Deputy Principal’s will notify parents if uniform standards are not being followed.

We ask that you ensure all children have a change of clothing in their bags (this does not have to be school uniform).  This saves the office having to phone you and disrupt your day if your child requires a change of clothing.
