Dress code
The school does not have a compulsory uniform. Our dress code is that pupils should wear comfortable and practical clothes that are suitable for all school activities. They should take a jacket to school and make sure they can be warm in winter and cool in summer.
The school encourages the wearing of school uniform as it offers a sense of identity and belonging, as well as being a cost effective way of providing clothes for the children.
The uniform consists of a red polo shirt, sweatshirt, rugby shirt, cardigan or fleece. Items bearing the school logo may be ordered at the office or from Leviathan International at the Pier Head Stromness.
A protective apron or an old shirt should be worn for art and craft activities.
Appropriate footwear is essential – high heels are always a hazard and should not be worn to school.
PE kit
For health and safety reasons, pupils will need a separate PE kit for school to get changed into. The appropriate clothing and footwear for PE is a T-shirt, shorts and gym shoes / trainers with non-marking soles. No jewellery please that could get caught in anything.
Please ensure that all items of clothing are clearly labelled, particularly sweatshirts and PE kit, which are often lost.
