Fraid so; but they get less white with time, even though I only ever wash all white things together.

DD1 - no
DD2 - yes

DECKmuppetWITHBOUGHSOFHOLLY · 10/12/2008 13:44

nope.

uniform entirely coloured. Even down to boiler suit and painting/dinner apron (fab as just shove it all in the wash and get 1 uniform wash done)

pe kit has a white t-shirt.

JingleBennysAndJooniper · 10/12/2008 13:45

Seona1973 · 10/12/2008 14:32

McDreamy · 10/12/2008 14:33

Yes

hippipotami · 10/12/2008 14:34

White polo shirt (or shirt) and white PE shirt.
Nightmare. I think the headmaster who decided on white shirts must have disliked the parents very much!!

Anna8888 · 10/12/2008 14:34

Bloody hell.

I wanted to lobby school to drop the white shirt requirement but I now see that this is fairly standard... Grrrrrrrrr.

IllegallyBrunette · 10/12/2008 14:35

Yes, white polo shirt/blouse and white pe shirt.

Seeline · 10/12/2008 14:35

We can choose between white or yellow shirts - neither of which come clean in teh wash

frankbestfriend · 10/12/2008 14:35

We have a choice- white or jade green

pooka · 10/12/2008 14:35

Yes, white shirt/polo shirt. Can have yellow if we want as well, but they are harder to get hold of if you are buying the un-logoed uniform for reasons of economy.

christywhisty · 10/12/2008 14:37

no, both pale blue shirts/polo shirts

harpomarx · 10/12/2008 14:41

no, thank god

Tommy · 10/12/2008 14:42

yes - white shirts with ties and polo shirts in the summer

by the end of the school year they are usually off white with extra marker pen stains...

LynetteScavo · 10/12/2008 14:42

yes white pole shirts at 2 different schools.

LIZS · 10/12/2008 14:42

yes . Both boys and girls wear white shirts/blouses from year 2. Younger boys have white polos in summer, girls have white and navy stripey dresses

Elibean · 10/12/2008 16:06

Yes, white shirt, polo shirt, or T-shirt under pinafore or with skirt.

Though pale grey goes perfectly well with the rest of the uniform

ScummyMummy · 10/12/2008 16:07

Yes= white polo shirt- but you can wear red instead if you want.
