Nearly New/ Pre-Loved Uniform
If your child has outgrown an item of uniform and it is still in good condition please consider donating it to school. Clean uniform can be handed into the office or given to staff on the gates. We will then either use to provide a family in need with uniform or use it to stock our termly 2nd hand uniform shop where for a small amount of money you can buy items or you can bring in clean good quality uniform and exchange for the next size.
We welcome any ideas for reducing the cost of uniform for parents whilst maintaining a smart appearance to help children families feel proud to be part of the academy.
