Planning to send DS to QE Boys this September, but fear we may have hit a major hitch. DS has found out from a friend's brother who attends the school that you must wear Speedo Brief style trunks for the swimming sessions there.
I've checked the website uniform list and they just state 'swimming trunks'.
DS has made it exceptionally clear that he "will never" wear them and now doesn't want to attend the school because of it.
I think it's more a question of being embarrassed, as DS much prefers to wear briefs as underwear. However every time I try to broach the subject things get a little wobbly, understandably - I'll keep trying.
Can anybody confirm if this is the case at QE Boys?
If it is - I was thinking to get him a pair or two to wear as underwear every now and again. And try to take him swimming with them at least a couple of times before September.
Thanks :)
