Possible Uniform Change – I have received quite a lot of feedback about our uniform tops, both on the quality of the fabric and how dirty they look. Many have commented how the fabric, both collar and main part, pills and ‘catches’. There are also many comments that the yellow colour is hard to clean and most of the tops look dirty even when freshly washed. In investigating these issues, we are looking at changing to a new fabric supplier and also changing the yellow colour to one that will minimise any dirt. Also, we know that many schools on the shore have the same colours as us which makes sports events, in particular, confusing. After checking the colours of other schools’ tops, we have come up with two alternatives. Both are a shade of green (to tie in with being an EnviroSchool) and we will retain the navy colour on them too, as our shorts, skorts and trousers will not change colour.  Both these colours, with two different style options, are on display in the school office. We would love your feedback, so please pop in and fill in the form stating your preference A, B, C, or D or no change. The new supplier is cheaper and has a retail store as well as online options. We are also looking at an optional rain jacket with a fluro strip for visibility. Any change in uniform will be phased in over a 2-year period starting next year.
