What they need/Uniform

Children will need a school book bag, a PE bag, a change of clothes to be kept at school and wellies.

Little Harriers children also wear a uniform of a navy blue jumper/cardigan with a school logo, a white polo shirt, grey or blue socks/white tights and black shoes. Boys will need grey trousers or shorts and girls will need a grey skirt, pinafore or trousers and in the summer a blue and white checked dress.

Lunch times

If your child is attending Little Harriers for a full day, they will join the Reception children in the dining room for lunch time. They will need to bring in a packed lunch, or alternatively you can book and pay for a school dinner through your Parent Pay account by Thursday of the week before.

Potty training

We do ask that you ensure that your child is fully potty trained by the time they join Little Harriers. We know that sometimes accidents can happen, and therefore ask all parents to provide a spare set of clothes to be kept at school just in case. We understand that potty training can be quite difficult in some cases, and therefore have added a few links below that may contain some useful hints and tips to help with this!
