At Gilbertstone Primary School we expect children to wear our school uniform because it unites us as the Gilbertstone Family and promotes a good attitude to learning and behaviour. Please ensure that all uniform and PE kit are clearly labelled with your child's name.
The Gilbertstone uniform consists of:
- Grey skirt, shorts or trousers
- A white shirt or white polo shirt (these are available with the school logo from local uniform shops)
- A red cardigan, jumper or sweatshirt (these are available with the school logo from local uniform shops)
- A red checked or striped summer dress
- Grey, red, white or black tights or socks
- Sensible black school shoes with fastenings that your child can manage. No heals, flipflops or open toed sandals for safety reasons.
- No trainers (unless a PE day)
- No jewellery other than small studs in ears
- Religious headscarves need to be school colours (black, grey, red or white)
The Gilbertstone PE kit consists of:
- A plain white T-shirt
- A pair of red/black / grey shorts
- A pair of black pumps for indoor PE
- Plain tracksuit bottoms and top in red, black or grey (Logo and fashion tracksuits are not appropriate)
- Children can come to school in their PE kits on their PE days / afterschool club days.
Non Uniform Days
- On themed days there is no expectation for pupils to take part in the theme.
- Parents and pupils can choose to wear their school uniform on these days
- Footwear should remain sensible for the planned activities and high heals and open toed shoes should be avoided.
- Clothing should not contain offensive slogans or images to others
- Clothing should make no reference to drugs or alcohol, either written or imagery.
- School must remain in an impartial and non-political setting, no political slogans or reference to an identifiable preference should be displayed. Please also see the No Platform Policy on the school website.
In line with Local Authority guidance, no responsibility can be taken for any lost items.
Wellington boots are also needed for our Forest School - session dates have been emailed out. Children will need to take wellingtons home after their final session during their Forest School week.
If you are struggling to fund school uniform please do not hesitate to contact the school office. We may have some second hand uniform that may be suitable.
Our full uniform policy is available on the school website policies page.
Space in cloakrooms is very limited. All pupils, including Key Stage Two children are requested to use a book bag rather than large fashion bags and rucksacks.
