UNIFORM
We made the decision last year to change our uniform in order to support physical development within the early years, which is a very important developmental area for our little ones! We have also found that the new uniform has greatly benefited independence for the children in relation to dressing and toileting. You will be able to order all items from Smart Uniform and we encourage you to order in advance to ensure delivery before September as this is a busy time of the year. Please can we also stress the importance of labeling all items of your child's uniform and checking regularly that the name is still in place to ensure nothing goes missing.
Please see below for a list of our Early Years (Nursery and Reception) active school uniform.
- White school polo top
- Black school hoodie
- Black leggings/ jogging bottoms
- Black shorts/ skorts
- Black Velcro trainers
Before you arrive please work on the documents below and see how many skills you can master prior to starting your Nursery journey with us.
If you have any concerns or feel there is key information regarding your child that staff need to prepare for in order for your child to have the best start possible please do not hesitate to get in touch on 01782 973810
Welcome to Reception
Children will be admitted in September of the academic year in which they become four years old. It is the County Council’s policy to try and meet parents’ wishes where possible, however in some cases there may be more applications for a particular setting than there are places.
