School Uniform
Our school uniform is intended to be both smart and practical for children to wear. We hope that it will make life easier for parents as well of giving children a sense of identity with Gastrells. All items of uniform are available at The National School wear Shop in Merrywalks in Stroud. We also keep a small stock in school.
Green v-necked sweatshirt or cardigan embroidered with our Gastrells logo

Girls may wish to wear a grey skirt or skort instead of trousers or shorts, or a green and white or yellow and white striped or checked school style dress in the summer

We would be grateful if parents could ensure that the children's hair is of natural colour only and of a sensible style. Long hair should be tied back in the interests of safety and hygiene.
Children should not wear jewellery (necklaces, brooches, earrings etc.) to school. Where earrings cannot be removed from pierced ears, only a small stud should be worn in the interests of safety. Earrings must be removed or taped for P.E.
Make up and nail varnish should not be worn to school.
PLEASE CLEARLY NAME CLOTHES AND EQUIPMENT. Thank you.
