Personal Property & Equipment
Name Labels
We urge all Parents to ensure that all clothing and personal property is clearly marked with a nametape or indelible ink to reduce the amount of lost property.
School bag
A rigid backpack and a sports bag of a sensible size are recommended for bringing personal equipment to school. Plastic bags are unsuitable.
Lockers
Lockers are available for £10 per academic year, including a £3.00 refund at the end of the year, provided the key is returned and the locker is in good condition.
Stationery
Please use the table below as a checklist. Each pupil should have the following basic school equipment:
| Blue Cartridge or roller ball pen |

Water
All the children are encouraged to drink water regularly throughout the day. Research has shown that children can become very quickly dehydrated which results in a loss of concentration, in irritability and a slump in mood.
Mobile Phones
These are not allowed in school for obvious reasons. Pupils who travel some distance to school who may need to contact home to organise travel arrangements etc may leave phones in the school office for collection at the end of the school day.
