Stationery

Pupils should bring the following items in a pencil case:

  • Pencil;
  • Pencil sharpener;
  • Rubber;
  • Cartridge pen (for small blue ink cartridges). Please note that girls will be introduced to the use of cartridge pens in Year Three/Four, depending on their handwriting level;
  • Spare cartridges;
  • Ruler (with millimetres);
  • Pupils may include two-three gel pens for annotating their work.

Pupils do not require coloured pencils or felt-tip pens. Please do not include ink-eraser pens or ‘liquid paper’, as these eradicate errors – and our approach is that pupils learn from their mistakes.

The school provides all exercise books. Additional equipment, e.g. compasses, is provided in class and on loan when required for homework.
