Parents
Welcome parents!
The following pages have been designed to help you find out more about the daily runnings of our school.

3. School Term & Holiday Dates
At Mill Lane School all the children are encouraged to wear the bright red Mill Lane sweatshirts and T-shirts, together with white shirts and grey trousers or skirts. We believe that this form of dress is attractive, practical and makes a good advertisement for the school. Those who do not wear our suggested outfit should be dressed in sensible and appropriate clothing. In any event all children should have some form of overall for the more creative activities!

Each child will need to have a P.E. kit available every day - shorts, T-shirt and plimsolls to be kept in a bag. Jewellery must not be worn to school, with the exception of earrings which if worn must be studs only. Earrings must be removed or covered for P.E. lessons. The school will not accept responsibility for the loss or management of jewellery nor for any accidents caused by it.
The following items are available from the school office with the school logo on.
Sweatshirts - £8.50
Fleeces - £12.00
Bookbags - £3.00
Reversible shower jackets - £15.00
Cheques made payable to Mill Lane School Association.
These are the normal attendance times for each part of the school. It is apprecriated if pupils can ensure prompt attendance at the beginning of the day as this avoids disruption to the whole class.
