Lost Property

Help Us Help You!

This is a request for parents to check that ALL of their child’s property is clearly labelled. If items - including hats, clothing, drink bottles, containers, bags -  are named, we can easily return them.

Please consider:

• Hats – make sure your child’s hat is named securely (these are taken on and off many times a day).

• 2nd-hand uniform items – if you have acquired any 2nd-hand items, please ensure you remove any old labels and rename them with your child’s name.

• Old labels - go over any faded labelling to ensure it is clear and legible.

• Lunch containers and drink bottles – we throw out LOTS of unnamed containers each term.  Please write your child’s name in permanent marker on the container AND lid, not just attach a label, as labels easily come off.

• Additional clothing items - if your child wears any additional clothing items to school in the cooler weather (eg. parkas, jackets, beanies, scarves, etc.), please ensure these are also clearly named.

We would prefer to be able to return the many lost items which we receive each week to their owner, so please help us do this by naming everything.

Parents can also check the Lost Property collection point outside Room 5 (the Science Room, opposite the Staffroom) in the main building if their child has lost something.
