Notes on Uniform

Shoes: On the advice of the School Doctor, these are the traditional lace-up or casual style. They must be of one colour, black or navy blue. They should be leather and strongly made to allow for hard wear. They must be a sensible style. No platform soles or high heels will be permitted. Fashion boots are also not an acceptable style of uniform. For summer wear, navy blue or brown sandals may be worn as long as both toes and heels are protected.

Purse: All girls must carry their purse on their person at all times. They can wear a purse belt or carry a purse in the zipped pocket of their skirt.
