The Peel & Stick shoe labels are optional.

The matrons can sew on the labels for you but there is a charge for this service.

This must be done before the clothes and shoes are sent to school. If this is not possible, the Matrons can undertake this task for a charge. This would be added to your end of term account. Please pay special attention to footwear.
