Basic equipment needed every day

An appropriate sized bag to carry their belongings, pens, 1 pencil, pencil sharpener and 1 ruler, 1 set of coloured pencils, pair of compasses, protractor and calculator.  Students should always carry a reading book in their bag.

General Points

1. Brightly coloured T-shirts should not be worn underneath blouses or shirts and the latter should be tucked in at all times.
2. Cosmetics should not be worn in school.  Coloured nail polish must be removed before coming to school.
3. Extreme hairstyles in terms of colour and cut are not permitted.  Braids must be the same colour as the hair and be secured by bands of the same colour.
4. Jewellery (including badges) other than a wrist watch is not permitted.               

Ears and other body parts should not be pierced if it means that sleepers or studs have to be worn during the school day.

Students who arrive at school not wearing the correct school uniform may be sent home to change.
