School Uniform - avoiding polyester

Does anyone know where to get school uniform tunics/pinafores which have a decent cotton content, rather than being 70% polyester (or whatever)

Thanks...

M&S?

M&S summer dress is over 50% polyester, but it's the best I've seen so far. John Lewis do wool trousers, so they may also do wool tunics. I think they also do a polycotton summer dress.

Check out this Guardian article, and follow links thru. Pinafores are a bit of a pain to get in cotton. Do you know a seamstress?

I don't know if you will see this but I just bought 100% organic cotton pinafores, trousers and a skirt from Tesco at v good prices £6, £6 and £4! I am amazed, and very pleased.
