School Uniform Policy

Overstrand, the Belfry CE VA Primary School

Uniform Policy

The Belfry School expects our students to look clean, smart and to wear the school uniform. Our uniform with the grey sweatshirt and the school logo is simple one, aimed at fostering a feeling of 'belonging'.

Uniform

• White shirt and green tie
• Grey jumper or school sweatshirt, or dark green cardigan
• Dark grey, straight-legged trousers or shorts
• Plain grey or plain white socks
• Grey skirt or tunic (pinafore)
• Grey or dark green tights

Summer Uniform Option: Easter to October Half-term

School polo shirt may be worn instead of the white shirt and tie.  A green checked dress may be worn

Footwear

Shoes must be low-heeled, black, school-shoes. No boots, high heels or open-toed sandals may be worn. Trainers may only be worn for PE. (In bad weather, wellies or boots may be brought to school for outdoor play only)

Accessories

Earrings may be worn, but they must be small plain studs. No other jewellery, nail-varnish or make-up may be worn at school. Hair accessories should be plain and small.

PE Kit

• Green shorts and white polo top.
• Trainers for outdoor PE. (The school does not recommend plimsolls for PE. Indoor PE is done barefoot)
• Outside PE Kit: Plain jogging bottoms and top during colder weather.
• PE bag (kept on your child’s peg)
• Change of socks for PE

Swimming Kit (Oak, Ash & Willow Classes only)

• Swimming hat
• A one-piece swim suit or trunks (not the loose fitting shorts-type) 
• Towel
• All children must bring a coat.

It is useful to have a bag specifically for the swimming kit so that wet clothes do not spoil any school books.

No jewellery may be worn in the pool for reasons of health and safety.

Optional Extras

• School fleece jacket
• Baseball cap

PLEASE MARK ALL ITEMS CLEARLY WITH YOUR CHILD’S NAME
