Uniform

Here at Oare Church of England Primary School we take pride in looking our best at all times; it shows that we care and that we are ready to learn. We believe that children should come to school in suitable clothes of a smart appearance. Uniform can be ordered via

OHM Clothing

We are making some changes to our school uniform; please see the new uniform requirements listed below. There will be a transition period until the end of term 2 for pupils to adjust to these changes. During this period, both the old and new uniforms will be acceptable.

 

We encourage both boys and girls to wear the following:

  • Navy blue sweatshirt and/or zip fleece with embroidered school logo, Navy blue cardigan with school logo
  • Sky blue polo shirt with school logo
  • Grey trousers
  • Grey skirt or pinafore
  •  Black shoes

In summer there is the option to wear:

  • Grey shorts
  • Light blue gingham dress

Sweatshirts, Cardigans, Polo shirts, P.E. t-shirts, P.E bags, Book bags and School Backpacks with the Oare School logo are available from our uniform supplier. Whilst we would strongly encourage all uniform to have the school logo where possible, all non-embroidered items of clothing can be bought at the usual school-wear stockists, e.g. Marks & Spencer, Tesco, Asda, etc.

Comfortable, practical footwear is very important so that children may run around and play safely in the playground. This includes sandals that are supported at the heel. Trainers and high heels are not allowed for general wear.

Please ensure all uniform items are clearly labelled, including P.E. kit and Wellies!  It is part of a child’s education to teach them to look after their property; labelling items supports this.

P.E. Kit

It is essential for safety reasons that children are properly equipped for PE lessons. Please ensure that your child wears their PE kit to school on the days that they have P.E.

The kit should include:

  • Sky blue Oare School t-shirt with school logo
  • Navy blue or black P.E. shorts
  • Black daps or trainers (no flashing lights or fashion trainers)
  • in colder months it is important that the children are dressed appropriately for outdoor P.E. They can wear navy tracksuit tops and bottoms (NO logos or brand names).

Playground sales are advertised through the school newsletter and the uniform stock is available at any time by request at the school office. All items are priced to be affordable.
