It is important that children wear the correct uniform at all times.
All items of clothing and property should be clearly marked with your child's name. The school cannot be held responsible for anything that is lost, but if an article is marked we shall make every effort to return it to its owner.
Please note that children with pierced ears may wear small stud earrings only. Long hair should always be tied back. Nail polish is not permitted.
Children may wear a watch. As is our procedure for mobile phones, if the watch has functions which enable internet access, messaging or photography, it must be handed into the office in the morning.
Y6 School Leavers Hoodies
Each year, the Year 6 parents and carers (independently of the school) place orders for Leavers Hoodies. These are paid for by the parents, delivered to the school and presented to the Y6 pupils on the Friday of SATS week after SATS are completed.
The children may choose any colour they wish.
The Y6 children may wear them to school from this date.
We ask a couple of things:
- Liaise with the Headteacher or the school office via email before placing the order if not every child in the cohort has placed an order. We do not want any child missing out
- Do not put surnames on the hoodies
- Make sure that the main name across the top of the hoodies on the back is appropriate - especially if the children choose a nick name.
- The children revert to wearing their formal OLV uniform for any trips/visits/Masses/events/school photograph after receiving their hoodies
Your Y6 cohort of parents and carers may decide that they do not wish to order hoodies at all. They are a parent/carer led initiative. They are not a requirement.
