School Uniform

Our uniform

School uniform is worn by all children at Hotham Primary and is regarded by staff and parents to be an integral part of the school's ethos. Our uniform has been widely consulted with parents and pupils. 

We would appreciate parents' cooperation and support in ensuring that children are correctly dressed.  On days when children have PE, they can arrive in school dressed in their PE kits.

The items listed below should be worn by all children:

Compulsory items:

  • Navy Hotham sweatshirt / cardigan

  • White polo shirt

  • Navy trousers/shorts/pinafore

  • Black shoes (sensible - no boots or high heels)

PE kit:

  • Navy Hotham PE t-shirt

  • Navy PE shorts/joggers/leggings

Optional items:

  • Red gingham dress

  • Navy hijab

  • Navy PE hoody

  • Red Hotham fleece (legacy item which can be worn over jumper outdoors/to and from school)

  • Red bookbag/backpack

Please note:

We do not allow children to keep mobile phones / smart watches on their person during school hours. Pupils who require mobile phones (e.g. older children who walk home alone) must hand them to a member of staff on arrival for safe keeping.
