All students should come to school with the equipment required for the lessons that they have on that day, i.e. black pens, green pen, purple pen, pencils, ruler, rubber, pencil sharpener, pencil crayons or felt-tip pens and their reading book.
All students must wear their ID card and lanyard every day as they allow access to school, printers and payment for lunches.
Students should have a reading book with them at all times.

Maths: A scientific calculator, a protractor and a pair of compasses should be brought to every lesson. These can be purchased from the maths department.

Lost Property
Please remember to label your child’s uniform and equipment, where possible. There is a lost property area in the corridor between the main office and the school hall, which students are able to check for any items they have mislaid.
Once a term the lost property is checked for any named items and we endeavour to return these items to their rightful owners. Any unnamed items are disposed of in the Rag Bag textile recycle bin.
Mobile Phones
We may bring mobile phones / tablets to school at our own risk. These may be used only as learning tools under the direction of the teacher or in an emergency situation.
