Sweatshirts/Cardigans

Footwear
The school staff recommend sensible ‘proper’ shoes for school. Some fashion footwear, for instance, mules or those with high heels are not suitable for school on the grounds of health and safety. We know that footwear can be very expensive and children grow out of shoes quickly. However, children need to be comfortable for an active and varied school day.
