School Active Uniform Policy

All children in Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are asked to wear a Palfrey Infant School uniform. We would like all our children to have a school uniform to give a sense of community and belonging. We have amended our uniform to ensure pupils are able to be 'active everyday'. 

School active uniform:

• Navy blue sweatshirt with or without logo
• Navy cardigan with or without logo
• Red polo shirt with or without logo
• Navy or Black leggings or joggers 
• Sensible black trainers (Velcro not laces)

Our logo uniform can be bought from: 
Clive Marks – Saddlers Centre, Unit 40-44, 1 Park Street, WALSALL WS1 1YS
Crested School Wear - 7 Park Street  WS1 1LY 01922 276266

Note that logo uniform is not compulsory.  Local supermarkets stock a range of generic (without the school logo) uniform at competitive prices. 

In school, we stock a range of previously loved, good quality uniform available for parents to help themselves. Just ask the office staff to show you to the uniform. Any donations of outgrown, good quality, clean uniform are gratefully received. 

If you need assistance with the cost of uniform, please speak to Mrs Walsh/ Mrs Adams in confidence. 

Jewellery

We discourage jewellery in school and request parents do not send their children to school with jewellery. This is due to the increased risk of injury as a result of wearing jewellery. Please ensure ALL jewellery is removed on PE days. 

Hairstyles 

It is recommended that pupils with long hair tie it up at all times.

School bag 

The school provides each child with a Book Bag from their first day with us. 

Makeup and Nail Varnish

Makeup and nail varnish are not permitted, unless for religious ceremonies or special occasions such as non-uniform days.

Adverse weather 

Pupils can be outdoors in all weathers during playtime and outdoor learning. Therefore, weather-appropriate clothing such as a warm waterproof coat in winter, and a sunhat in the summer are required. Items such as gloves, scarves, wellington boots are advised when appropriate and can be removed in the classroom.

Labelling 

We strongly encourage all pupil clothing and footwear items are clearly labelled with the child's full name and class. Named items are easier to return to the rightful owner. Unnamed lost property is taken to the lost property box in the year group base.
