To order uniform the link below or email [email protected] with the item details, including your full name. Orders during Term time can be delivered to school.
Other items of clothing can be obtained from local chain stores. Please make sure your child wears suitable low-heeled footwear (not trainers) and a change of shoes in wet weather. During showery or cold weather children will need outdoor coats for use at playtimes.

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).
Forest School
KS1 Forest School is on a Tuesday afternoon and KS2 Forest School is on a Thursday afternoon. We would like children to wear their school sweatshirt on these days, with either blue or black trousers/jogging bottoms. Children need to have a pair of named wellies in school at ALL TIMES. Please also ensure your child has a warm coat, and in colder weather an extra fleece, hat and gloves.

Second Hand Uniform
Some items of second hand uniform are available. Please contact the school office for further information.
Donations (especially sweatshirts) are always welcome
Valuables
We cannot take responsibility for any jewellery, toys, watches or money brought onto school premises. Please discourage your child from bringing unsuitable toys to school. Jewellery should NOT include bracelets, necklaces or dangling earrings, as these are likely to be a danger in the playground or during PE.
