Uniform
Nanyang Girls' High's prescribed uniform is a white sleeveless cotton blouse with small slits at the side edges of the uniform, a knee-length accordion-pleated cotton skirt, shorts underneath, a PE polo tee (cotton or dry-fit), and NYGH ankle socks with plain white shoes. Name tags with different colours for each level must also be worn with the uniform. The colours are rotated each year so that a student, theoretically, can use the same colour of name tag for the four years while she is in Nanyang.
For student leaders like Peer Support Leaders, Student Councilors, Board of Elected CCA Leaders and Board of Monitors, a gold name tag must be worn with the uniform. Student councilors are prescribed a white cotton blouse with long sleeves (which are to be folded up) instead but it is optional for them to wear it.
There is also another set of uniform to be worn only on formal occasions such as competitions. These consist of a slightly-above-knee length white straight skirt, a long sleeve white collared blouse with the red block Chinese characters of the word "Nanyang" sewn on the top right side. Over it is a long sleeve yellow suit and a blue 'tie' over the collar of the white blouse.

Famous quotes containing the word uniform:
“The sugar maple is remarkable for its clean ankle. The groves of these trees looked like vast forest sheds, their branches stopping short at a uniform height, four or five feet from the ground, like eaves, as if they had been trimmed by art, so that you could look under and through the whole grove with its leafy canopy, as under a tent whose curtain is raised.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The Federal Constitution has stood the test of more than a hundred years in supplying the powers that have been needed to make the Central Government as strong as it ought to be, and with this movement toward uniform legislation and agreements between the States I do not see why the Constitution may not serve our people always.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“We know, Mr. Weller—we, who are men of the world—that a good uniform must work its way with the women, sooner or later.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
