Logoed tracksuits are available, but not compulsory. Non-logoed tracksuits, joggers and sweatshirts must be grey and not hooded.
* The office holds a limited supply of these items if you need to purchase items in an emergency. All items can be ordered through from Forest Casual Wear in Loughton.

Pre-loved uniform
We support the use of pre-loved school uniform. Good condition school uniform items that are no longer required can be donated to the Friends of Epping Primary School. These items will be available to purchase for a small amount from regular Friends stalls, set up throughout the year.
Please ensure all your children’s clothing is named.
If you need new labels and order from this company then the school will receive commission, which will be used to fund important resources.
Jewellery / Watches
Jewellery of any type, e.g. watches, rings, bracelets, necklaces, brooches and badges should not be worn to school.
If your child has pierced ears, only plain studs may be worn but these MUST BE removed on PE days otherwise you child will not be able to participate.
Smart watches are only to be used in watch mode and must not be used for any other reason. Chargers and other accessories are not to be brought into school.
Hair Accessories
Mid to long length hair should be tied back at all times. Only purple, grey or white hair elastics should be worn in keeping with the school colours. No other hair adornments to be worn in the hair. Spare hair ties are always useful and could be kept in PE bags.

Sunglasses and umbrellas can be a hazard and we would ask that these be left at home during the school day.
