What should be worn for PE?

The national guidance has always been that no jewellery should be worn in PE. It is not safe to cover earrings/studs/sleepers with tape. Long hair also needs to be tied up.

Ensure PE kits include:

• A  white short-sleeved T-shirt (this must be suitable for physical activity)

• Black or navy shorts or jogging bottoms (weather dependent)

• A jumper or pullover (weather dependent)

• Trainers

Please note that our uniform expectations also include PE kits and it is essential that the clothes your child is wearing are suitable for physical activity and sports. 

Daily Expectations

Reading is an essential part of your child's learning. To support this, reading their school book daily can help develop blending skills, fluency and comprehension. Reading books need to be returned to school every Wednesday. New books will be disputed every Friday.

Your child will also bring home a library book to share with you at home. The children will visit the library every Friday to find another exciting text!
