Please support us by following our uniform expectations.
For our standard uniform we would like all children to wear the following:
- Standard red cardigan or jumper*
- White polo shirt* (children in year 6 may wear a shirt and tie)
- Black trousers, shorts or skirt
- Plain black shoes/trainers
- Black/red tights preferred
- In summer, children may wear red and white gingham dresses.
PE kit
- Red crew neck t-shirt (no collar)*
- Black shorts/skorts (appropriate length) for summer and black tracksuit bottoms for winter
- Children can wear their usual red school jumper or black sweatshirt/hoody
- Black unbranded tracksuits for PE are preferred
*items can have the Almond Hill logo on but without is absolutely fine and most items can be purchased very reasonably in local supermarkets.
Uniform Sales
It is really important that all uniform is clearly labelled to allow lost items to be returned to your child. We regularly invite parents to look through and claim items that belong to their child. Although some items are collected, we are still left with lots of uniform. Ordinarily, these items would be recycled but after listening to parents and understanding how successful ‘nearly new’ uniform sales have been locally, we have decided to hold uniform sales once a month at the end of the school day. We have lots of items including t-shirts, cardigans and jumpers and welcome all parents to come to the sales. We are asking for a voluntary donation of 50p which will be given back to the school.
Please support your child to look after their uniform by naming items clearly.
Only stud earrings and watches are allowed, no other jewellery should be worn. Whilst we appreciate that hair style is a parental choice, we ask all parents to support our policy of no fashion styles for school e.g. shaving patterns into hair or colour in hair.
FOAH Baseball Caps
Designed by the school along with FOAH, Almond Hill would like to introduce the new design baseball cap!
Unisex, and without a school logo but instead using our school moto ‘AIM HIGH’, this American style cap can be worn in and out of school.
We think it looks fantastic, and we hope you do too!
Perfect for hot weather, they are one size and come with a snap back rather than Velcro.
The caps are £8 each. Please place your pre-orders via School Gateway. We will send them home with your children as soon as they arrive!
With the popularity of the school baseball caps Friends of Almond Hill have created a school motto beanie hat with the same design.
Pre-order now for delivery to school
Available on School Gateway for £8.00
