Uniform
It is our school policy that all children wear school uniform when attending school or when participating in a school organised event. The governors and staff of Lime Walk Primary School strongly encourage all pupils to wear school uniform as it can play a key role in:
- promoting the ethos of a school
- providing a sense of belonging and identity
- setting an appropriate tone for education
At Lime Walk Primary School we believe our uniform helps give pupils pride in their school and show they are part of a community.
Our school uniform is designed to be comfortable and to look smart. We need to show pride in our school, and a smart uniform worn with pride is a way of doing this.
Our compulsory school uniform consisting of the following items:
- School sweatshirt or cardigan with logo
- Plain white polo shirt (school logo items are available through Mapac)
- Grey or black trousers, skirt, tunic or tailored shorts of an appropriate length
- Plain black, grey or white socks or tights
- Green and white gingham dress (this is an optional item and may be worn during the Summer Term)
- Black shoes or boots with no logos or coloured strips that are flat. They may have a buckle, laces or velcro.
PE kit:
- Plain white polo shirt (school logo items are available through Mapac)
- Plain black shorts
- Plain black tracksuit bottoms or plain black leggings
- Trainers
Additional PE kit, including items such as football boots, base layers etc may be required for PE / extra-curricular activities
Jewellery and nail polish
With the exception of a watch and small stud earrings, jewellery or nail varnish is not permitted.
We advise parents to remove earrings at home when there are timetabled PE activities (including extra-curricular) or swimming lessons.
Wellington boots are advisable when the weather is inclement
Additional items such as book bags, PE kit bags and sun hats may also be purchased from our suppliers.
Cost considerations
It is not the aim of the school to place an unreasonable burden on families and believe that school uniform should not be so expensive as to leave pupils or their families feeling unable to attend a school of their choice due to the cost of the uniform. Uniform with the school logo is available to order through Mapac. This can be purchased online or by visiting their shop in Watford. Sizing samples are also available to try before placing an order and can be viewed from the school office.
