Uniform Information- June 2017
The uniform committee have been especially busy at this time of year trying to help all the new and existing pupils with their orders.
If you you have an outstanding order we will send you an update as soon as we can.
We have quite a few orders waiting to be delivered before the end of term and our suppliers are doing their very best. There has been an issue with the boys tank tops which are out of stock until July so will be available in August. We hope any delayed orders will be available during the holidays or on the in-service days before school starts back so please don’t panic.
If you have missed the order deadline or need any more uniform items please contact our suppliers directly over the summer and your order will be sent directly to you.

I am sorry but we cannot invite the parents as there is just not enough room for everyone.
