Uniform
Please note that parents do not have to use our official supplier and parents are free to seek alternative suppliers that match our uniform policy.
At Sacred Heart we believe that our uniform encourages a sense of pride in appearance and a feeling of belonging to the school family. Therefore, the rules concerning uniform are strongly encouraged and continually enforced. However, we have made some changes recently in response to the rising cost of living and the cost of uniform.
Uniform items are available from Birds of Dereham and samples of jumpers and cardigans are available in the school for you to try on your child. Please make an appointment with the office.
Water bottles are expected to be brought into school each day, filled ideally with water, but with sugar free diluted juice if necessary. School water bottles are available from Birds of Dereham.

In general terms, jewellery is not allowed at any time. However, the wearing of religious items such as; rosary beads, crucifix etc is permitted. For a child who has pierced ears, one pair of small plain studs in the ear lobe is acceptable but not encouraged. Children in all classes are allowed to wear a watch (analogue or digital).
Any jewellery items worn in school, must be removed when taking part in PE lessons. The school will not be held responsible for any injury or loss caused as a result of wearing any of these items.
Hair must be neat and in a conventional style. No colourings or fashion statements. Hair accessories must be in school colours only (blue/black or hair-coloured) and we do not encourage any lines within cut hair.
We would urge you to name all items of uniform as it is almost impossible to trace the owners otherwise.
We do not hold an official ‘lost property’ box, but we do collect any lost uniform and keep them for a term in the middle building. Any named items found are returned directly to the child's class.
