Holcombe Grammar School Uniform

Update 31st March 2021

Some reminders of school uniform expectations for after the Easter break.

Now that shops are open, those students who have grown out of some of their uniform will have the opportunity to purchase new ready for Term 5. All students must arrive in School wearing their full school uniform, which can be found below. Jumpers should be plain and no hoodies are permitted.

Government guidance has changed, so when students return on Monday 19th April they will be able to use the PE changing rooms again before and after PE lessons. Therefore, there will be no need for students to wear their PE kit to school on days when they have PE. All students should return to wearing full school uniform after Easter and should bring their PE kits to change in to.

A reminder that if students wish to wear a tracksuit over the top of their PE kit when in lessons (which may be unlikely as the weather warms up), then it must be the official Holcombe tracksuit. No other tracksuits will be allowed when we return, so if students do not have our tracksuit they will complete PE lessons in the PE kit only.

All students need to have their planners on them every day and will need to hand in their old rewards cards on the first day back. They will then be issued with their new ones, which must be carried at all times.

Lanyards must be worn at all times and replacements can be purchased via +Pay at £1 per item. The item/items will then be issued to your child when ready.

Please ensure that your child has more than one face mask with them on a daily basis, in case their mask breaks.
