School Uniform

We endeavour to achieve a high standard in all our activities at school and we expect this to be reflected both in the appearance and behaviour of our pupils.

All children must have full school uniform, worn correctly, for daily attendance at school. Uniform will usually be worn on occasions when children are representing the school, including school visits.

Parents and carers are asked to co-operate fully by providing the uniform and ensuring children wear it correctly to and from school, and at other times as required.

The school offers the full range of uniform, PE Kit and accessories for pupils.

All items must be purchased online and are available for next day home delivery or a weekly collection from the school. Please use the following link limetreeschool.kitbox.com

For September 2018, Reception children will have a phased introduction to the new EYFS uniform for the first two terms(Autumn and Spring). Please click here for further information.

Please ensure that all articles of clothing and other items brought to school are clearly marked with the child's name.

Outer Wear

In winter, children need a warm waterproof school coat. Denim, leather or fur jackets are not considered suitable for school. In summer an anorak, cagoule or similar should be brought to school when the weather is unsettled.

Footwear

Shoes should be suitable for school wear enabling your child to play safely at playtimes. Children should not wear trainers to school.
Winter – Plain style black shoes with no coloured stitching.
Summer – Black shoes or sandals (sling backed shoes are not acceptable).
We would be very grateful if in the wet weather you would provide your children with their school shoes to change into, rather than ask them to wear plimsolls or wellington boots in school.
