         Winter Fittings - Letter to new entrant parents

Welcome to the Villa Maria Uniform Shop.  Our opening hours during term time are Mondays between 12:30 - 5 pm and Fridays between 12:30pm - 4pm. Other opening times will be advertised here depending on seasonal requirements.

Uniform Requirements 

 In 2007 the College introduced a new uniform. All new entrants to the College must wear the new uniform except in circumstances where their sister is presently a student or a recent leaver, in which case the second-hand uniform in the old style may be worn.

There has been no change to the College Physical Education (P.E.) uniform which was implemented in 2002.

By 2012, all Villa Maria students must wear the complete new uniform. In the interim,  irrespective of whether the student is wearing the new or previous style, all items must be of College regulation, style and colour.

The Board of Trustees requires all students to wear the correct uniform which is stocked at the College Uniform Shop.

Please note:  All articles on the uniform list and other possessions such as swimming costumes, towels, tennis racquets, hockey sticks, cases, etc. must be clearly marked. Girls are strongly encouraged to wear sun hats whilst outdoors.
