School Uniform

We encourage all children at Hexham First to wear school uniform. We believe it is more economical for parents and gives children a sense of belonging and pride. Our uniform policy was amended and reviewed in July 2022, a link to the policy is attached.
 
If you are having difficulty getting uniform, please pop in and chat as we almost always have a stock of good quality pre - loved items available for free.

Jewellery, apart from a watch, must not be worn in school. Earrings must be removed for school for safety reasons. If your child does have their ears pierced, we recommend they wear small clear plastic retainers.  No responsibility is accepted for the safekeeping of any jewellery, the care of such items remains totally with the owner. If you intend your child to have a piercings carried out, then it would be appropriate for this to be done at the beginning of the summer holiday, when the six week period would allow the pierced body part to settle down before returning to school.
