Halfmerke Primary is a non denominational school providing education for both boys and girls from the ages of 4/5 to 12 (P1- P7). Our current roll is 188. The school shares a campus with West Mains School and Halfmerke Community Nursery. We have close relationships with both and our inclusion policies have a positive impact on the learning of all children.

Our school uniform consists of grey skirt or trousers, white shirt and tie or red polo shirts and red sweatshirts.  Uniforms with our logo are provided by Baru and can be ordered via their website www.kitmykid.co.uk and selecting Halfmerke Primary.  
Please note - we do not insist that children wear polo shirts or sweatshirts with the logo. Plain red items are just as acceptable.  We ask that you put your child's name on all items of clothing.
Throughout the year, we also organise pre-loved swap shops for uniform.

This year in particular, we have extended our outdoor learning opportunities.  Black jogging bottoms are an acceptable form of uniform.
