School Uniform - which can you recommend and why?

[aintnomountainhighenough]

Not sure if I am posting this in the right place but here goes. I need to by my DD's uniform soon. The sweatshirt needs to come from National Schoolwear shop but can buy the rest from anywhere. Can you recommend any shop in particular and why? e.g M&S, Asda, Woolies.

Also any you definitely wouldn't go for!

Many thanks!

can anyone tell me how much uniform to buy? dd wuill be in reception

depends on how often you do laundry
I reckon 5 polo shirts, two skirts, two sweatshirts.
Pinafores are harder as they positively attract food..

I had 6 polo tops ( packs of 2)
2 pinafores
1 trousers
2 cardigans

(dd doesn't like skirts, and the pinafores did get v v dirty!)

i always tend to over buy !
i am still hiding cot sheets and blankets still in packaging away from dh i bought 12 fitted 12 flat and 8 blankets as well as 4 fleece blankets

i have bought 2 pinifore
1 skirt
2 trousers
2 cardigans
8 tights

I have found the mothercare polo shirst the best at not shrinking (also have the all importatn scalloped edge for girlies )
