We are very proud of both our heritage and our appearance which is why we have a compulsory school uniform that we wear each day we are at school. Our school uniform is available to try on at the office, however you will need to order the uniform through our supplier via the link below.
Our current policy regarding uniform is:
PURPOSE:
1. To state the uniform requirements expected to all students at Southbrook School.
2. To stipulate rules relating to the wearing of school uniform.
3. To provide protection from the sun by making the wearing of sunhats compulsory.
