Our daughter starts at Heber in a few weeks. Where's the best place to get the uniform?


Also, as we are new to having to buy a uniform, what exactly do you think she needs? A mixture of generic skirts/dresses along with a couple of specific sweatshirts branded with the logo from the school?

Blue sweatshirt, available from school. White polo shirt with school emblem, available from school. Don't have girls so don't know about dresses but they are blue and white checked summer dresses that a lot of the girls wear. Some girls also wear grey pinafore/sleeveless type dresses. Otherwise, grey skirt or trousers. Black shoes. There is also a school zip up jacket. Some kids wear them, but not all.


On quantity - how much do you want to wash! Depending on how messy you daughter is at meal times,then 2-3 sweatshirts. Remember Reception kids also play with a lot of messy play as well. How many polo shirts you get depend on whether your daughter will be wearing dresses and what type of dress.


The school office may be open a week or so before school starts. Try giving them a ring. I do know some of the office staff are not term time only. Otherwise, don't sweat. You can always get stuff in the first week.


Hope your daughter enjoys Heber.


(Edited to make sense!)

We have just sweatshirts - 5 and white polos just came from m&s. We also have plain tracksuit bottoms, fleece top and white tsahirt for pe in a named bag but iirc reception don't need that.


We have about 8 trousers and polos otherwise washing and ironing is a bit fiddly to keep up.. he has clean every day

No need for PE kit in Reception. But, for yr 1 onwards it is tracksuit trousers or shorts and plain white polo. We used to have plimsoles for indoor PE once a week (other session is outdoors) but my oldest just has a pair of trainers packed for both sessions now.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though.

    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
