P. E. Kit
County regulations dictate that for gymnastic and movement
lessons in the school hall children must be barefoot, even if
they have cuts, blisters or a verruca. If these are split and or
painful they could be covered with a sticking plaster. For
invasion games with apparatus (e.g. hockey) a pair of
lightweight plimsolls (NOT TRAINERS) should be
worn. Trainers or a separate pair of plimsolls should be worn
for outdoor games. Therefore, either two pairs of plimsolls or
one pair of plimsolls and one pair of trainers are needed.
