    The kids reported back that one 'child' (I suspect it was a 6th former) turned up in a 'mankini' and was promptley sent home - backing up the behaviour issues others have suggested....

  • My DD's school had "own-clothes" day friday, and has another 1 this friday both days pay £1, i don't mind paying the £, its the "own" clothes that gets on my nerves :mad:, i buy the uniform for my DD to look like all the other children and not be judged on her clothes shes only 5, but a lot of her friends have "uggs" party dresses and the like. Me myself think that all mothers dress them like that to say "oh look at my kid" she/he has got the latest uggs, party-dresses and some bluddy strappy sandals, i mean come on in november!!!

    I'm just grateful that there is a uniform so that I don't have to wonder what to dress my two in every day, so the occasional non uniform day is no problem imo and neither of my two cause any trouble over what to wear (they wouldn't dare ;):D!!). They had alot of fun on Friday by the sound of it.
