Senior School Welcome Booklet - June 2023

Uniform
A student’s outward appearance, as well as their demeanour and
character, can reflect credit (or otherwise) on the College as well as
on themselves. Students should come to school and leave school
smartly dressed every day. Members of the public frequently form
their first, and perhaps only, impression of a school on superficial
acquaintance – please encourage your child to set and sustain a
good example of personal smartness and individual behaviour.
Regulation clothing must be worn in school, on journeys to and
from school, on school occasions and whenever they represent
the College.
Games clothes must be brought to school on the appropriate
day and taken home afterwards, not left in lockers.
