The Uniform Shop is an onsite service.

It is open every Thursday from 9.00am - 10.00 am, at the end of G Block.

Currently, the Uniform Shop is not open to allow you to try the uniform on your child. In lieu of this, you have been provided with an order formsize chart and suggested minimum number of each item you may require for your child’s needs (see below).

Order forms should be completed and returned prior to the 12th November, to ensure sufficient stock is available and to allow time for exchanges to be made.

Once completed, please email a scanned copy of your form to owpsuniform@gmail.com or return the form to the school office or Uniform Shop Letterbox (No. 8), located in the front courtyard of the school. 

Alternatively, the Uniform Shop is online and you can order your uniform via this website link.

Please note, order forms sent by email are being accepted for orientation, they are otherwise not actioned by this method.

Once your order is ready, the Uniform Shop will contact you to arrange collection from the school office. If the sizes you have selected are not suitable, exchanges will be accommodated, provided the items being exchanged are in their original condition, with tags and packaging intact.

All exchanges for uniform items needed for the start of the year will need to be resolved prior to the end of the school year, as the Uniform Shop is not open during the school holidays. It will only reopen on the first Thursday when school resumes for Term 1 next year.

At this time, winter uniform will not be available for you to order, this will be arranged early next year.

Uniform Shop updates are communicated weekly in the School Newsletter or via the SkoolBag App. Order forms for your future needs can be located on the School Website, at the School Office and on the SkoolBag App. Alternatively, you will be able to order your uniform online, with all deliveries made on Thursday.
