Pre-Loved School Uniform
At Thornbury Primary, we are committed to becoming a more sustainable school. Reusing and recycling school uniform is a simple way we can work together to reduce waste, while also helping families save money.
Our Uniform Exchange
We have a Uniform Exchange in our school entrance, where families are welcome to browse our selection of good-quality, pre-loved school uniform.
Please feel free to take what you need. By choosing pre-loved uniform, you are helping us give clothing a new lease of life and reduce the amount of perfectly good uniform going to waste.
Uniform Store Plymouth
Families can also access free, pre-loved school uniform through Uniform Store Plymouth.
The Uniform Store accepts donations of good-quality school uniform and makes these available to families free of charge.

If you have good-quality school uniform that your child has outgrown, please consider donating it so that it can be reused and enjoyed by another family.
Together, we can reduce waste, reuse more and make a positive difference to our environment.
Physical Education:
It is expected that, on your child’s PE days, they will wear their PE kit to school, for the entire day. Even if your child is unable to be physically active on their PE day, they should still wear their PE kit as they will be involved in the PE lesson in alternative ways. Should the PE day need to change for any reason, such as school photo day, you will receive a message on Arbor, from the school office. If your child attends a sports extra-curricular club which is not on their PE day, they will need to bring PE kit to change into for this club.
For 2026 - 2027, year group PE days are:
Foundation: Friday
Years 1 & 2: Monday and Wednesday
Years 3&4: Thursday and Friday
Years 5&6: Tuesday and Wednesday
For PE Lessons, children will need:
Games, Athletics, Outdoor and Adventurous Activities:
In the winter:
Long black or navy jogging bottoms, plain red t-shirt or red Thornbury PE top, red school jumper & black trainers.
In the summer:
Black or white shorts, plain red t-shirt or red Thornbury PE top & black trainers.
*Note: Children should always have a warm, waterproof coat with them. *
Long hair must be tied back.
Gymnastics & Dance
Black or white PE shorts and plain red t-shirt or red Thornbury PE top. Children will be asked to remove their shoes and socks to minimise risk of slipping. If there is a medical reason as to why this cannot happen, please inform your child’s class teacher. If gymnastics and dance occur in the winter, children may wear their red school jumper and long black/navy bottoms to school, over their shorts.
Jewellery
In order to minimise potential risk to your child and other children, Thornbury Primary School have a no jewellery policy in PE, in line with the recommendations from the Association for Physical Education, School Sport and Physical Activity (AfPE.2020).
If you are going to get your child’s ears pierced, please do so at the beginning of the summer holidays so that healing time will not impact on their learning in PE.
If children are unable to remove their own earrings, we ask that parents do this before school arrival.
The expectation is that all earrings are removed before PE lessons. If this is not possible, taping of the ears is at the parents’ discretion. This needs to be done either at home, before school arrival, or the children can bring medical tape or plasters to school and apply this over their earrings before the PE lesson. Adults will not be able to help with this. Should this not be viable, children will take an inactive role in the PE lesson, such as development of tactics, scoring or umpiring. All other jewellery, including watches, fitness trackers and any other accessories, need to be removed.
