At St Mary's, our uniform is very important to our school. It ensures all children have a sense of belonging and pride of the school they represent. We expect the co-operation of parents/carers in supporting our school uniform policy.

Our new uniform supplier is School Uniform Direct in West Byfleet.  Uniform can be purchased from the shop or online https://www.schooluniformdirect.co.uk/

We have changed our school uniform for September 2026 as detailed below.  Children can continue to wear the blue polo t-shirt, jumpers/cardigans however, from September 2027, children  will be wearing the new teal uniform. 

Second hand uniform can be obtained through the PTA or the Home School Link Worker although currently, we will not have the new teal uniform or white polos or shirts and ties. 

PE Kit (Yrs R - 6)

All pupils should have a teal PE t-shirt with the school logo and plain black shorts or skortz. Indoor PE is performed in bare feet. For outdoor PE, trainers or plimsolls are advised. For outdoor sports in cold weather, pupils are advised to wear black jogging bottoms - no leggings please. A mid-layer quarter zip top with the school logo is also available (this must only be worn for PE). All Reception & KS1 children should have a spare set of underwear in their PE bag.

For swimming, a towel, swimsuit / trunks, and a swimming hat are needed. Swim hats are available from the school office.

Book Bags & Rucksacks

All Reception and KS1 children at St Mary’s will be required to bring a book bag to school which is provided by the school. This should be brought to school every day and kept in the child’s tray. If you wish your child to bring a rucksack, it must be of a sensible size so that it can fit into a locker and the book bag must be brought into school every day. We advise that pupils in Reception and KS1 only use a book bag.
