Uniform
Please be reminded that uniforms are compulsory, and we only place orders once payment has been made.
The weather is getting cooler and children need to order the hoodie and/or the jacket in order to avoid being sent home. We request that all students adhere to our basic dress code; bottoms need to be either plain denim, navy, black, grey, or white.
No brown, khaki, beige, etc.
Please check what your child is wearing in the morning.
Please note that there will be minor delays in deliveries regarding the school jacket specifically. All other uniform items arrive within a week of the order being placed.
Kind Regards,
Sue Parry Principal
