Our online school uniform shop at Scholars is now open! 🎉 Malmesbury Primary School Products 🎉
You can explore our range of uniform from the comfort of your home or visit the store at 3 The Causeway, Chippenham, SN15 3BT if you prefer.
Before placing your orders, we encourage you to check our remaining stock at our school shop on Arbor to take full advantage of our bargain prices.
If you have any questions or require assistance, please don't hesitate to contact the school office.
Note that children do not have to wear branded items with the school logo. Generic uniform is widely available in the school colours from supermarkets and other outlets.
Shoes
Please ensure that your children wear sensible shoes to school. Children are very active during the day both inside the school and in the playground. Their shoes need to be comfortable and safe. "Strappy" sandals are likely to cause trips and falls and boots are not allowed – in extreme weather children will be allowed to wear boots/wellingtons for their journey into school and then change into school shoes.
Hair
As shown in the adjacent picture, hair below the shoulder should be tied up so that it does not cause a hazard in P.E and sports and remains out of eyes in lessons. Hair should be natural in colour and not dyed. We do not permit tramlines and encourage blending between the longer and shorter hair.
Jewellery and Hair accessories
For safety reasons children should not wear jewellery. The only exceptions are stud earrings and essential religious items. We do not want to see children wearing hoops or dangly earrings. Please do not send your child to school with fancy headbands and clips – they are not part of school uniform. Please save these for weekends, weddings and parties!
Skirts and Shorts
Smart Watches
Children are not permitted to wear smart watches in school (watches with functionality beyond basic time-telling/date/stopwatch/alarm). Some smart watches can take photos/videos, send/receive texts, or connect to the internet — impossible to individually police which functions are active, so please keep these devices at home. Traditional analogue watches are encouraged for older children learning to tell the time.
Make Up
Make up including nail varnish is not allowed in school.
PE Kit
- A draw string bag (not plastic), left at school during term time, clearly named with child's name and class
- A pair of black shorts and a red t-shirt
- A pair of clearly named trainers
- A black/blue plain tracksuit or jogging top and trousers for outside PE
- Gymnastics and dance take place in the hall in bare feet; trainers used for outdoor games lessons
- Children needing to wear jewellery for religious purposes should provide tape or micropore tape to cover the jewellery during the lesson

Stikins labels
We strongly recommend clearly labelling all your child(ren)'s uniform. It is very easy for items to get mislaid and it makes it much easier to reunite pupils with their lost property if it has their name on!
