Second Hand Uniform Shop - This operates on Tuesday afternoons from  3.00 - 3.30pm  in front of Room 12 in the Leonard Building. The school is most grateful to our parent helpers for running this each week.

All uniforms sold through the second hand uniform shop have been donated to the school and we are always grateful for all uniforms received. If you have any uniforms that you wish to donate to the school, please feel free to drop them in to the school office at any time.

Note - We are currently running low on smaller sized uniforms for the junior school students, so if you have any at home which are no longer being worn, we'd love to receive them! Many thanks.
