THINGS TO BRING

Mobile phones Pupils may bring their mobile phones to school but have limited access to them and must hand them in to the House Team at the required times. Please do not let your son/daughter bring an additional mobile phone to school. Do not bring • Computers or iPads etc – pupils lease laptops through the school and no other devices are permitted, for safeguarding reasons and to ensure pupils can focus on making friends and their academic studies without distraction • Large amounts of cash – pupils have access to lockable safes for valuables, but we do not recommend having excessive quantities of cash • Any additional medicines or supplements without consulting the Matron • Any medicines that are not licensed in the UK

Essentials •

Full set of uniform – all clearly labelled, check the Uniform list on the Parent Page for additional essential items (e.g. a pillow, a single duvet, two duvet covers, towels etc.) • Medicines in original packaging – please hand all medicines to Matron • A small set of home clothes – all clearly labelled • Toiletries – including toothpaste, shower gel, shampoo, period products etc. (Pupils can get these and other essentials from Summertown. Houses also have limited supplies available to purchase in the case of an emergency.) • Stationery • An alarm clock • A bank card • Headphones (wireless ones) Please label everything clearly with the pupil’s name and House initial (L), woven labels tend to last longest. Please bring some spares.
