There is a uniform at Roding which all children from Reception upwards are expected to wear every day as it helps develop our school identity.

Children in the rest of the school may wear:

• Navy Roding sweatshirt or plain navy pullover.
  
  
• Roding polo shirts or plain white, pale blue or grey shirts or blouses.
  
  
• Grey, black or dark blue trousers or shorts for boys or girls (no denim jeans or track suit bottoms please).
  
  
• Plain black, navy or grey skirt (with thick opaque tights if necessary in winter).
  
  
• Plain or blue check dresses/pinafore dresses
  
  
• Plain lace, Velcro or pull on shoes or black trainers (not backless sandals, flip-flops, high heels, “heelies” or “crocs”).

Please note: Track suits, Bermuda shorts, sundresses and other fashion wear are not suitable for school.

Nursery children may wear a light blue sweatshirt with the school logo, which is available from Reception.

All children are expected to come to school appropriately dressed for the day's activities.

We stock uniform in school – please contact the office for details.

Please mark all coats and uniform items with your child's name

P.E. Kit

P.E. is a compulsory part of the curriculum and, in order to take part in
a safe and healthy way, children need to wear the appropriate kit.

They must change into plain shorts, and Roding or plain tee shirt for
each lesson.

In the cold weather, children may wear tracksuit bottoms and an extra top for outdoor lessons.

For apparatus and dance lessons children MUST have bare feet for safety reasons. For all other indoor games lessons, they may wear plimsolls or soft trainers. Children must change their footwear for P.E.

You will be notified at the start of the school year on which days your child’s class has P.E. Please ensure they always have their kit with them.

Art Clothing

Children will quite often be using messy materials such as paint, glue or clay during their time in primary school.  Although teachers do their best to help children remain clean, accidents will happen from time to time.
In order to minimise the risk to clothing, children should bring an old shirt/apron/overall (named!) to wear during art lessons.
