Clothing & Required Items A clothes list is printed at the end of this section for your reference. Please note that the lists are pupils’ minimum requirements. The school reserves the right to buy for the pupil and to charge to the parents’ bill any essential article of clothing that is missing from the list. All pupils must have sufficient articles of clothing to ensure that they are smartly and cleanly turned out and that their clothes are in good repair. Naming It is compulsory that all items of clothing be named with a name tape; this includes all items of underwear, socks and tights. Other possessions such as calculators, watches etc. should also be clearly marked with name and House. Name tapes specify initials, surname, school number and House laundry code letter on the same tape. House laundry codes for name tapes: Cotton Littlefield Preshute Summerfield Turner Dancy

Crosby & Lawrence offers a full naming and House delivery service for uniform and kit for new pupils. Pupils will be fitted for uniform (new or second-hand) at the shop. Crosby & Lawrence will then ensure items are delivered, fully and correctly named, to their child’s House ready for the start of the term. It is expected that the vast majority of parents will take advantage of this service which is offered at a cost of £99 for Shell and £65 for Lower Sixth (excluding the cost of the name tapes). If you wish to use the name-taping service, please indicate this to Crosby & Lawrence when booking your child’s uniform fitting. A third party home clothes and linen name taping service is available. Details of this service can be obtained at your uniform fitting. These items can be left at the Crosby & Lawrence shop any time during the summer and can be ready within 5 days. Items marked with an asterisk* are uniform and must be purchased at the school shop: Crosby & Lawrence. 59
