We wear our uniform with pride
Uniform is an important part of a school’s identity. It reinforces who we are as a community and helps enable students to feel pride in their school. It ensures students are not put under any pressure because of the type of clothes they wear and promotes equality. We wear our uniform with pride and thank you for ensuring your children are properly equipped for the school day.

Pupils should wear their normal Holy Cross school cardigan or sweatshirts over their PE kit in the classroom. They may change into a plain, black sweatshirt for the PE lesson only.
Expectations are that all pupils should be able to dress themselves (unless valid reason), be able to tie their own shoelaces and tie their own tie.
All clothing should be labelled with the name of the child so that it can be returned if lost. All clothing unnamed will be put into the lost property box and be disposed of at the end of each term.
