Uniform List

Parents are expected to comply with the current regulations which will be strictly enforced. Though uniform can seem expensive, it is sensible, practical and, with care, can last for some time. On admission to school, a uniform list with details of suppliers will be issued to parents. For safekeeping it is essential that all items of clothing and equipment are clearly marked with the owner’s name.
