Uniform The uniform changes with the seasons
apart from the school blazer
the bottle is green embroidered with the school in arms over the breast pocket. Winter is a uniform tartan kilt
usually dark blue
but with red and green
plus a dark blue pullover V-neck with two green stripes along the collar
and a white shirt. In the fifth grade (two years before Sixth Form) students are allowed to wear a straight skirt of the same material as the kilt. The summer uniform is a summer dress with a green block pattern. In the Sixth Form girls can wear their own clothes
as long as they are intelligent and not random. It is expected
how to attract young professionals. Naming years
