Uniform
We believe our uniform helps students feel proud and a sense of belonging, whether they’re in school or at school events.
We’re committed to keeping uniform costs affordable for families by encouraging non-branded items and offering high-quality second-hand options at our Turnaround Shop.
Suppliers
Marks & Spencer's have now withdrawn their school uniform service, and so we have enlisted two other companies to provide school uniform.
- Springers Personalised Products are based in Hawkinge, and are available for online or face-to-face ordering.
- Brigade Clothing is our other uniform provider who offer an online service.
Turnaround Uniform Shop
Second-hand uniforms for St Augustine’s are available weekly on Mondays from 10.00am to 12 noon and on Tuesdays from 10.00am to 12 noon at Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church, Hythe.
Anybody can email their specific uniform item needs and, if in stock, their request will be dropped off at school on Thursdays between 2.00pm and 4.00pm.
We ask for £2.00 per item which has a school logo on it and £1.00 for everything else. There is some amazingly good quality clothing available, so remember to put in your orders. There is a list of what is available attached below.
