Uniform
At Cherry Tree Primary School and Nursery we value the wearing of a school uniform and ask that all families support the school by ensuring their child wears the correct uniform at all times.
We do not expect you to wear branded items. In choosing our school uniform, the Governors have made every effort to ensure that the uniform items are affordable and easily accessible. Any family experiencing any difficulty relating to uniform is asked to contact our main office, and we will be happy to provide any assistance we can.
Our Uniform consists of:
- Sky blue polo top, shirt, blouse or summer dress
- Grey trousers, shorts, skirt or pinafore
- Navy blue jumper or cardigan (no hoodies)
- Black or grey socks
- Grey tights (no leggings)
- Plain black shoes or black trainers
PE
Please note that on your child's PE days, they may come to school in their PE kit. This must be the school's PE kit:
- Plain white polo top or T-shirt
- Navy or black shorts or tracksuit bottoms
- Black plimsolls for indoor PE or trainers
In accordance with Essex Local Authority, children are not allowed to wear earrings for PE.
Jewellery
Children may wear a watch to school, but it is their responsibility to look after it. It is not appropriate for children to wear jewellery to school. Small stud earrings are allowed but must be removed for PE. Staff can not remove earrings for children, so please ensure your child is able to remove their own earrings or does not wear them to school on PE days.
Smartwatches with cellular connectivity, internet connection, with apps for gaming or with a camera are not permitted to be worn in school.
Make-Up
No make-up, nail varnish, acrylic nails or fake tan can be worn to school.
Hairstyles
We expect that children have sensible, smart hairstyles suitable for the school environment. Girls may wear a small, discreet green or black hairband. Hair should be one natural colour only (not coloured). No shaved lines, patterns or extreme hairstyles.
(If you need further clarification about acceptable hairstyles please discuss speak to the school office)
