Hathaway Academy Uniform Policy
Enhanced Uniform Guidelines for Students:
Blazer: All students are expected to wear the official Gable Hall School blazer. Blazers should be worn at all times while navigating the school premises. During hot weather, the principal reserves the right to permit the temporary removal of blazers indoors.
Tie: It is expected for every student to wear the school plaid ties.
Shirt: Students must wear a plain white shirt or blouse that is appropriate for pairing with a tie and can be neatly tucked in. Polo shirts, T-shirts with patterns, or designs are considered unsuitable. Sleeve length can be either long or short, particularly during the Summer Term.
Trousers: The uniform policy stipulates plain black tailored trousers that are not clingy, 'skinny,' or designed like jeans. These trousers must be full-length and feature traditional pockets, with no side leg pockets or zips. Hems must be present and not frayed, and the bottom of the trousers should rest on the shoe rather than cling to the leg. Denim, corduroy, lycra material, or hipster-style trousers are not allowed.
Kilt: A tastefully crafted stitched-down knife pleat kilt with a button-fastened waistband, wrap front, and internal waist adjuster is provided, ensuring a smart and well-fitting appearance. This kilt offers both durability and exceptional comfort.
Socks - Plain white or black socks
Tights: Experience the premium comfort of our cotton-rich tights. Crafted with the utmost quality, each pair features a meticulously hand-linked, flat seam toe design that ensures both sophistication and durability.
Physical Education Kit:
Physical Education holds a pivotal role in shaping your child's educational journey during their initial five years at Gable Hall School. To ensure a comprehensive experience, each student will partake in four to five PE lessons per fortnight. Our commitment to upholding standards of appearance, presentation, and safety is reflected in the expected PE kit outlined below.
For uniformity and consistency, it's important to note that all P.E. and Dance attire should bear the Gable Hall logo. We kindly request that items from other brands, such as Adidas and Nike, which carry their own logos, be avoided. If you are unable to purchase attire with the Gable Hall badge then plain white / black attire will be accepted.
Expected Attire for Students:
- Official Gable Hall School P.E. polo shirt.
- Official Gable Hall School P.E. leggings / Training Pants.
- Official Gable Hall P.E. 1/4 zip training top.
- Plain Black Socks.
- Official Gable Hall School P.E. Shorts.
By adhering to this uniform policy, we collectively ensure a cohesive and safe environment for all students engaging in physical activities. Your cooperation in this matter is greatly appreciated as we strive to provide a well-rounded educational experience for your child at Gable Hall School.
