Ashmead School

P.E. Days and Kit

To ensure that your children are being provided with 2 hours of statutory high quality PE lessons, we have 2 lessons each week - indoor and outdoor PE.

Please remember, your child will come to school in their PE kit on their PE days. If you wish, you can pack a bag with spare clothes for your child to keep in their cloakroom.  

On PE days, your child will need to wear:

• A house PE t-shirt
• Black Shorts (appropriate length for coverage and movement) or black jogging bottoms
• Black PE Hoody/jumper
• Spare socks - especially if your child wears tights during the day!
• Trainers (if your child's outdoor shoes are trainers, they do not need to bring in another pair)

In the Winter months, jogging bottoms and hoodies are advised to ensure your children are warm during the day as well as during the PE lesson. On a cold day where your child has indoor PE, they are able to wear shorts underneath their jogging bottoms if they'd like to. This should minimise risk of injury or illness. In the warmer months, appropriate length shorts or skorts can be worn alongside their house t-shirt.

If your child requires an Inhaler, please ensure that a named inhaler pump and spacer are sent to your child's class teacher as soon as possible.

Any jewellery will need to be removed prior to the lesson, or on the morning of your child's PE lesson. You are able to cover earrings with plasters or tape if your child has recently had their ear/s pierced. 

PE kits can be purchased online or at the shop:
