The majority of parents prefer their children to wear recommended school dress which at Penny Acres consists of;
- grey skirt, shorts or trousers
- white or red polo-shirt or blouse
- red sweatshirt, fleece or cardigan
- red and white gingham summer dress
- red fleece jacket.
We ask you to send your child/children into school on their PE days wearing their PE kits. This makes for a much easier transition between classroom based and PE lessons.
PE days are as follows:
All of Penny Acres – Tuesday
Wigley Infants – Monday
Wigley Juniors – Tuesday
PE kit to be made up of the following please:
- Plain, house-coloured shirt (No football kits or heavily branded shirts please)
- Black shorts/bottoms
- Suitable footwear for both indoor and outdoor activities.
Please note, shirts do not need to carry the school logo.
Jewellery: One pair of plain studs (gold or silver) only.
During the cooler months, the children are to wear their school jumpers/cardigans as an additional layer which can then be removed for their PE session.
How do I buy a school uniform for my child?
In line with the Department for Education’s statutory guidance on the cost of school uniforms, we have a supply of uniform items available in school to support families facing financial difficulties—please contact us so we can assist in accordance with this guidance.
Wet or snowy weather considerations:
Please ensure that your child brings a pair of shoes for indoors if they need to come to school in Wellington boots.
