Orchard Park has a school uniform and we expect all children to wear it. Parents can purchase school uniform via the online payment system SIMS Pay. After payment, the item of uniform will be sent home with your child. If an item is not in stock it could mean a wait of up to three weeks.

 

Please note the SIMS Pay has changed to Pay360 Education Payments on 26th July. You will need to access it through the link below:

Earrings in School

 

Children are not allowed to participate in PE if they are wearing jewellery.  This also includes swimming.  National Guidelines state that it is no longer safe to cover earrings with tape.  The reason is because of potential tearing of the earlobe but also the very slim chance that the post of the earring could damage the neck which is where the brachial nerve is running directly to the brain.  There are anecdotal cases of children wearing earrings with plasters over them being hit with a ball and coming off worse with nasty injuries.  For these reasons we ask that, whenever possible, children are not sent to school wearing jewellery (especially on PE days)
