Uniform

At Kippax Greenfield Primary School, we are very proud to be members of our school community. We want to nurture a sense of belonging in all our children and wearing our school uniform helps us to do this. To view our full uniform policy, click here.

Early Years Uniform

Playing can be a very messy business and, although many parents look forward to their children wearing school uniform, it is not always the most practical clothing for the type of activities the Foundation Stage children will be involved in. We have chosen our Early Years uniform because it is practical, comfortable and child-friendly. This uniform is expected for all Early Years children, including both Nursery and Reception.

  • Navy blue or jade sweatshirt or cardigan (with logo or plain)
  • White, jade or navy t’shirt or polo shirt (with logo or plain)
  • Navy blue or black jogging bottoms, leggings or shorts
  • Velcro fastening trainers (any colour)

To clarify, we ask that children are not dressed in skirts or dresses. These can restrict movement and play. Belts, clasps, tights and shoe laces also prevent children from independently dressing themselves and going to the toilet. Please do not dress your child in shoes with laces or trousers with belts for school.

KS1 + KS2 Uniform

  • A navy blue or jade green jumper, sweatshirt, cardigan or fleece top with the school logo or plain
  • A white shirt (preferably short sleeved) or white, jade green or navy blue polo t-shirt with the school logo or plain
  • Navy blue or black trousers, shorts, skirt or pinafore
  • A navy blue/green and white checked dress (summer)
  • Black shoes, boots or plain black trainers
  • Shoes should be flat and appropriate for school. Your child should wear shoes that they can do up independently and which do not prevent them from running in the playground. For health and safety reasons, sandals and heeled shoes or boots are not appropriate for school.
  • Kippax Greenfield Primary School’s logo has recently been updated. Uniform with both versions of the logo are acceptable.

Our School’s PE Kit

All children will take part in PE every week and these will be either indoor or outdoor sessions. All children must and wear:

  • Navy blue or black plain shorts, joggers or leggings
  • A navy blue or black sweatshirt or hoodie
  • A house-coloured (red, blue, green or yellow) or plain white t-shirt
  • Plain black trainers
  • Pupils that attend swimming will need a swimming costume/swimming trunks/shorts and a towel. Bikinis or tankinis are not permitted

*Please note, in the interests of making uniform affordable, there is no requirement to buy items with the school logo on them, however school colours must be adhered to.*

Children will also require a water bottle clearly labelled with their name.

To reduce lost property, please ensure you have clearly marked all clothing, bags, bottles etc. with your child’s name. We do not accept responsibility for any loss or damage to an individual’s property.
