We have a selection of Pre- loved uniform available for families in our office reception area at the entrance to school. Please leave any high quality washed pre-loved uniform in the basket at the school entrance which can then be shared for others. These are available free of charge or a small donation may be left for school funds if you wish. New uniform is available from RVS, Whittaker’s Blackburn and Grays, we often have discount leaflets in the school entrance.
