School uniform can either have the school logo (clothing and book bags with the school logo are available from Trutex, 14 Cockcroft Road, Didcot, Oxfordshire, OX11 8LL) OR can be generic. Many of these items are readily available in local clothing shops and supermarkets.
‘Pre-Loved’ school uniform is available at no cost. There is a Harwell School Uniform facebook page or ask the school office to put you in touch with Joanne Ray who runs the scheme.
Please make sure that all clothing, footwear, and other items that children bring to school are clearly named. If your child loses an item of uniform please ask them to look in the class cloakroom and the Lost Property Box for their class.
