SCHOOL UNIFORM

We, at St Wilfrid’s, are proud of the standards of school uniform which our students continue to achieve.  The attitude, behaviour, appearance and success of the vast majority of our students makes them excellent ambassadors for the school.  The maintenance of these standards, of course, requires constant vigilance on the part of both parents and staff.  We greatly appreciate the splendid cooperation we receive from the majority of our parents.  We are also grateful to our principal suppliers, Grays and Whittakers, for their support in maintaining standards and ask that parents should be careful in buying from other suppliers, lest they purchase articles that are of incorrect design and inferior quality.

UNIFORM SUPPLIERS

Grays, 68 Northgate, Blackburn.

Whittakers, 10 Ainsworth Street, Blackburn.

 

ALL YEAR 7 PUPILS BOYS and GIRLS need a Food Technology apron and a Design and Technology apron (regulation style)

SWEATSHIRTS are available for use for outdoor pursuits, as an overgarment for games or for casual use at home.  They are navy blue with an embroidered school badge on the front, with the words “St Wilfrid’s” in yellow, printed over the badge.  (This is not a compulsory item of equipment, and may not be worn together with school uniform, but many of our present pupils find it a useful garment).

MARKING
All school clothing should be clearly marked with your son/daughter’s name.  PE kit should be brought to school on the days required and taken home for washing and cleaning afterwards.

YEAR 11 have their own tie, available from school, at a cost of £5.50.  This is distinctive in both colour and design and different from that worn by Years 7 – 10 and the Sixth Form.

JEWELLERY
No jewellery (except a cross around the neck inside the shirt or blouse) may be worn by pupils in Years 7 – 11.

HAIRSTYLES should not follow extremes of fashion within the context of the school; eg wedges, stepped hair, skinhead cuts, spiked, coloured hair or hair extensions.  Hair preparations are not allowed.  All male pupils should be clean shaven, and hair should be cut clear of the face and clear of the collar at the back.  Girls’ hair, if below shoulder length, must be tied back at all times.
