Uniform

 

Children at Wheatcroft are expected to take pride in their appearance and their uniform.  All clothes worn to school should be smart, clean and clearly labelled.

  • Haircuts must be sensible - no shaved, patterned or tramlines. 
  • Hair should not be shorter than a number 2 and not over the eyes or face. 
  • All hair should be of a natural colour.
  • All hair longer than shoulder-length should be tied back. 
  • Hair accessories should be either blue or black and simple in style. Elaborate hair accessories are not acceptable in school. 
  • No nail varnish should be worn to school.
  • No jewellery should be worn to school with the exception of a watch.
  • If your child has pierced ears one single pair of gold or silver coloured studs may be worn - no hoops. 
  • Earrings should not be worn to school on PE days.

Footwear

Children should wear black school shoes to and from school. Boots should not be worn except in inclement weather.

Sun protection

During the warmer weather the children are welcome to wear sun hats or caps. If your child is very sensitive to the sun you may wish to consider applying a long lasting sun lotion before sending them into school. 

PE Kit

The following items are required by children for physical education:

Indoors

Black plain shorts or skort, plain yellow polo shirt or tee shirt (preferably with Wheatcroft logo). Plimsolles.

Outside

Black plain shorts or skort, plain yellow polo shirt or tee shirt (preferably with Wheatcroft logo). Jumper or tracksuit, trainers.

A slipper bag with a drawstring or a small sports bag should be provided to hold articles of PE clothing. We cannot store large bags in school. We insist on a drawstring bag for children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2.

All children are required to take part in Physical Education, which includes both indoor and outdoor activities. There is no choice in this matter whatsoever. Obviously, if you as a parent feel that your child is unfit to participate on a particular day, then a note should be sent along explaining this.
