PE Kit
All children require a PE kit and a drawstring bag in which it can be stored at school.
PE kits may be taken home and returned as often as parents wish, but it is important that children always have suitable kit available for lessons.
All uniform and PE kit must be clearly named. Lost property can be distressing for children and clear labelling greatly helps us return items to their owners.
