School Uniform

SCHOOL UNIFORM

Following a request from the parents themselves, the school has an official uniform. Although the school cannot force children to wear it, it is felt that a uniform leads to a sense of pride in the school, and a feeling of belonging. According to many parents, it’s an easy and reasonable way of dressing children. Therefore, parents are encouraged to send their children to school in uniform.    

The uniform is:

  • A green jumper/hoody with the school logo  
  • A dark blue polo shirt with the school logo
  • Dark blue trousers, shorts or skirts
  • During SUMMER – green and white gingham dresses

It’s important that children wear appropriate footwear or dark trainers.

Our school uniform is available to buy from 'Orchid Fashions', Caernarfon, and you can also order the uniform online from 'Brodwaith'.

P.E. KIT

Changing for physical exercise lessons is an important part of a child’s education. We will let you know about a day/days where your child will have PE lessons. Shorts and a t-shirt will be required for these lessons in summer, and a tracksuit in winter. Children will exercise barefoot in the hall, but a child with a skin condition can wear light pumps. In summer, lessons will be held on the yard, and pumps or trainers will be needed during this term. Old trainers or football boots can be worn to go on the village field (Junior Department only).  

If a pupil wishes to be excused from PE lessons for medical reasons, he or she must have a note from a parent (for a temporary request) or a medical certificate (for an extended period or permanently).  

If a child often forgets his or her PE kit, the school will contact you to remind you of the timetable.

PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR CHILD’S NAME IS ON ALL ITEMS OF CLOTHING

This solves many instances where clothing goes missing or is left in school. Many companies sell useful stickers, e.g., Personalised School Uniform Labels | Stikins ®
