Items of clothing bearing the school badge are optional and available to order through our uniform supplier ‘The School Outfit’ www.theschooloutfit.com Orders can be made via their website, email or at their shop ‘Little Gems’ in Sunderland.
Occasionally children in KS1 have little ‘accidents’ so it is a good idea to keep a spare pair of pants and socks in your child’s shoe-bag too.
The Friends of St Leonard’s (FOSLs) collect pre-loved uniform that can be recycled by parents for a small donation as required. Items are re-sold every Friday after school.

- earrings (including clear plastic retainer earrings)
- bracelets of any kind
- necklaces

A watch will be permitted, but where this is a SMART watch, all connections to mobile devices must be disconnected.

- long hair should be tied up at all times for both boys and girls
- no novelty hair bands or bows.
PLEASE MARK EVERY ITEM OF CLOTHING, INCLUDING FOOTWEAR, CLEARLY WITH YOUR CHILD’S NAME
