Jewellery, Hairstyles and Make up

In the interests of safety, security and uniformity, children are not allowed to wear any jewellery, earrings, rings or necklaces, except for wrist watches. We ask that, if you wish to have your child’s ears pierced you do so at the beginning of the summer holidays, thus giving your child’s ears time to heal before returning to school. Make-up and nail polish are also not allowed. Children should have neat, sensible hair style for school. Children should not have heads shaved or designs cut into their hair e.g. tram lines, or have their hair coloured for school. Children with long hair should have it tied up. We expect that parents and carers will support our school policy and so maintain high standards and pride of appearance as their children wear the Sacred Heart School uniform.
