Focus of the Week                                        

Show Racism the Red Card

 

School Uniform

I would like to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to parents and pupils for the tremendous support that you continue to provide in supporting our school uniform.  As you know, we invest significant efforts to promote our uniform including special assemblies, presentations and a commercially produced flyer. I am confident that our pupils will look absolutely wonderful on their return to school on Wednesday.  In promoting our school uniform we are really looking for a partnership with parents.  Our approach can only be to work with parents and pupils to encourage them to support the high standard of uniform that we aspire to. We are simply trying to encourage pupils to adopt our dress code fully. Your continued support of our school uniform policy is greatly appreciated.
