Uniform
For Years 7-10, students wear a dark blue blazer with maroon stripes,which are known as "stripees", a white shirt, tie and black trousers. In Year 11, pupils switch to a dark blue blazer with a three-fishes crest on the left hand breast pocket. Sixth formers are required to wear a business suit of their colour choice, black, blue or grey, with a blue or white shirt. The school tie is blue with red stripes, with six additional house ties and various ties for membership of teams or achievements, and a separate tie for sixth formers.

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)
“An accent mark, perhaps, instead of a whole western accent—a point of punctuation rather than a uniform twang. That is how it should be worn: as a quiet point of character reference, an apt phrase of sartorial allusion—macho, sotto voce.”
—Phil Patton (b. 1953)
“We call ourselves a free nation, and yet we let ourselves be told what cabs we can and can’t take by a man at a hotel door, simply because he has a drum major’s uniform on.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
