NOTES:

Please note the required style of skirt is A-line and to the top of the knee. We understand that the skirt may appear shorter through the year as your daughter grows. For those students with longer legs, we suggest choosing the "slim" size option in the Lands'End website which will have a smaller waist while still maintaining the length that we require. Alternatively, a "below the knee" style may be selected.

Year 11 Prefects may wear their blue collared shirt and tie year-round to distinguish them from other students.

Both styles of shirts must be tucked in at all times, including when students are not in school, in order to maintain a smart look.

FORMAL UNIFORM

During the formal occasions, such as the Torch Ceremony and Picture Day, students will be required to wear a white collared shirt, a BHS tie and navy knee-length socks. A blazer is also required for formal occasions or when representing BHS, when it is weather-appropriate.

PE UNIFORM
