Uniforms & Personal Belongings
Dear Parents,
Excel School Uniforms will supply our school uniforms for 2024/2025. Uniforms can be ordered online at www.excelschooluniforms.ie or by contacting the Excel School Uniforms outlet at Unit 2, Six Cross Roads Business Park, Kilbarry, Waterford.
A reminder of our uniform options is set out below.
All pupils are asked to have either the old Newtown Junior School Green Tracksuit top or the new navy top. This should be worn with the Newtown Junior School white polo T-shirt or a plain white polo T-shirt.
Pupils can wear a choice of:
- Newtown Junior School green tracksuit bottoms.
- Loose fitting unbranded navy tracksuit bottoms (a subtle logo is acceptable, however large brightly coloured logos or Adidas striped tracksuits are not.
- Navy knee length skirt.
- Navy knee length pinafore.
- Newtown Junior School green shorts or plain knee length navy shorts.
Navy cardigans, black leggings or black tracksuit bottoms are NOT part of the school uniform.
Pupils can wear footwear and coats of their own choosing. If your child wears shoes with laces/buckles, please ensure that your child can tie the laces/close buckles, otherwise, please have shoes with velcro closing.
For designated PE day, tracksuit and runners should be worn. For swim day, each child requires a one piece swimsuit, waterproof swimming hat and a towel (all labelled). Goggles are encouraged. Swim socks are optional.
Please ensure that all items are clearly labelled. Labels may need replacement during the year. Unclaimed items will be placed in the lost property box which is kept in the lobby at the front of the school.
For safety reasons, the only items of jewellery allowed in the school are watches and stud earrings. All other items of jewellery will be either placed in an envelope during the day and returned at the end of the day or will be placed in the child’s school bag.
As there is a range of uniform options, we would appreciate it if all pupils wear the designated items.
With kind regards,
Ms McSweeney, Principal
