All children at Bryn Offa CE Primary School should wear the school uniform at all times. No additional items will be considered school uniform unless of a purely functional nature, and no novelty or decorative items will be considered part of school uniform. 

Please ensure that all your child’s school uniform and equipment is labelled clearly with your child’s name. Sewn in labels are best as handwritten names often wear off in the wash. Things only tend to get lost if they don’t have a name on them! 

School sweatshirts and cardigans can be purchased from the School Shop Direct website (https://schoolshopdirect.co.uk) or by telephoning them direct on 01743 440449. The remaining items of uniform can be purchased from most supermarkets or clothing stores.

Boys

• School sweatshirt or navy jumper.
• Plain grey or black trousers or shorts.
• Plain white polo shirt or shirt.
• Black shoes or sandals (buckle or velcro fastenings please if your child is unable to tie their own shoelaces). Please also note that socks must be worn with both shoes and sandals.

Girls

• School sweatshirt/school cardigan or navy jumper/cardigan.
• Plain grey or black trousers, skirt or pinafore dress.
• Plain white polo shirt or blouse.
• Checked or striped summer dress in blue and white.
• Black shoes or sandals (buckle or velcro fastenings please if your child is unable to tie their own shoelaces). Please also note that socks must be worn with both shoes and sandals.

Items of jewellery (other than a watch that must not contain any recording or communication features) should not be worn. Stud earrings are permissible but may not be worn for PE – if they cannot be removed they should be taped over with an appropriate low adhesive medical tape. Makeup, nail varnish and tattoos are not permitted in school. Long hair should be ties back with simple functional hair band or hair tie.

PE Kit

A full PE kit is essential.

We encourage parents to bring their child’s PE kit into school on the first day of term and for it to be left in school for a whole half term. As with other items of uniform, all items must be labelled including the PE bag and should include:

• White or navy plain shorts.
• White or navy plain t-shirt .
• Tracksuit bottoms/leggings and top for outdoor PE (these items are not needed in the Summer).
• Plimsolls or trainers.

Book Bags

Book bags can be purchased from the School Shop Direct website (https://schoolshopdirect.co.uk) or by telephoning them direct on 01743 440449.

It is useful if your child’s book bag could have an accessory such as a key ring attached to the handle to make it easier for them to identify which bag is theirs.

Key Stage 2 children tend to bring their own rucksack but these should be kept to an appropriate size please due to lack of space in the cloakrooms.
