We operate on a 'pay what you can' basis, with all funds going back into the store to replenish stock. We have a good selection of most uniform items (primary and secondary) and continue to welcome donations of uniform items in good condition. You can find the Uniform Store for all items located at the secondary main reception during school hours.
