School Uniform

School uniform is an important part of pupils' identity and it helps to make a distinction between school clothes and play clothes. 

It is hoped that pupils gain both a sense of belonging and pride in their personal appearance through wearing the school uniform.

Our school uniform can be purchased online from: 

Monkhouse Schoolwear - St Mary's page

 

You will need to set up an account on the Monkhouse School wear site.

Hair cuts
 
Pupils are expected to have appropriate hair styles at all times. Hair should be tidy and of a suitable length.  If hair is past shoulder-length, it should be tied back off the face with plain hair accessories, please (no novelty hairbands/bows, etc).  Hair should NOT be dyed bright colours. Shaved heads or Mohawks/ Cut-ins are deemed as inappropriate for school.  Thank you for your co-operation in this matter.
 
Nails
 
Children are not to wear nail varnish during the school term.

NO jewellery of any kind is to be worn during PE lessons. Children must be able to remove their own earrings independently. We are not permitted to tape earrings or use tape at all.

During PE lessons in the hall, pupils are encouraged to be bare-footed, but children will require stout trainers for playground and field sessions. Girls may wear a navy games skirt for netball.
