Hi there,


My son has just got a place in year 4 so will be starting tomorrow. I'm going to get the sweatshirt and polo shirt from the school today but just wondering about how strict the grey trouser bit is... obviously they need to be grey but do they need to be specifically smart one? we have several grey pairs but they're possibly a bit casual (cargo style). Will this be a problem? and what of shoes? black trainers or a black converse or smart school shoes? There wasn't a school uniform at his last school so I'm new to this!

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Although not previously very strict on uniform (this may change) it is expected that boys wear grey school trousers/shorts and black school shoes (there are many that are trainer alike if that's your preference) along with school logo polo shirt and jumber.


I hope your son enjoys Yr 4. Kids and parents are very friendly there so you should both feel very welcome.

Plain white polo shirts are fine from a supermarket

Shoes must be plain black though trainer style is fine


PE is navy shorts or track suit trousers and white t shirt

I send PE in a named bag and leave it there till half term

I send a navy fleece in the bag too just in case


Sweatshirts are available second hand via the PTA too

    • Great shout. They do need the extra fat when it’s winter, but don’t use fat balls from April as they are dangerous for nestlings as the babies can choke on lumps of the fat. When it gets milder switch to suet pellets as they are harder and don’t melt (the grease is bad for feathers.    
    • Rather alarmist. There is unlikely to be snow this week, but even if there is that is natural and wildlife adjust accordingly. There are fewer insects to eat due to what humans have done to the planet over the decades.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations  In particular: Habitat Loss and Fragmentation: Agricultural Chemicals: Climate Change: Pollution: Invasive Species: There is even a case for not feeding birds due to the spread of disease through feeders, greenfinch population was decimated.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jan/24/should-we-stop-feeding-birds-what-happens-if-we-do-and-does-it-spread-disease   I do feed the birds but keeping a watching eye on the evidence.   And I try to grow insect and bird friendly plants including attempts at a meadow.   There could also be an argument for not keeping cats as these may decimate bird populations.   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/aug/14/cats-kill-birds-wildlife-keep-indoors   You will need squirrel proof feeders and even then you may have the starlings and green squwaky things eating most of the food left out for small birds.  
    • Apparently this year due to the weather there are fewer insects for the birds to eat. So please if you don’t usually buy fat balls & seeds to put out (in safe places to avoid the cats ) a plentiful supply . They really need it this year, especially with snow forecast later this week.    Thankyou 
    • I hope she and the rider of the bike are ok. I feel its understandable that locals may be concerned when they see a road taped off and police presence.
