Hi

We have had note on uniforms for the DSO school today - will be same as other Gems Wellington schools but different logo. I have looked on zacs store & Gems Wellington Internation but its unclear on which items are logo-ed & which you can buy anywhere - e/g are the skirts/ trousers - a standard navy blue I cna get anywhere? Or do they have to be a set style. As curently in the Uk & would like to get as many bits over here before I come over as its going to be late august. Any advice from those with children in Gems Welllington schools?
My girls will be joing fs2 & Yr4.
Swimming costumes can you have any? Or navy blue or set school one?
thanks
Lorna

Emm9, just let your LO wear her usual swimwear until Zaks gets more stock in, you will see plenty of kids in their own stuff to start. There is no policy on lunchboxes so use what you like :) <em>edited by Purple on 05/09/2011</em>

hi all, is anyone else having trouble getting a swimsuit from zaks? the first time i went they said they were out of stock, and would be getting more the following week. i went again a few days ago, and was told they are still out. the sales guy told me any navy blue swim suit from a sports store would be fine, but i can't seem to find a plain one peice from other stores either. hmmmm... oh, and as for lunch bags/boxes, can they have whatever they'd like? or are their rules about this too? can you tell i'm a newbie with the whole school thing?! lol

Icoolie as juzzrach said, most of the uniform have logos. The culottes you will not be able to get in the UK. I have just come back from the UK and got my eldest two DD's plain black trousers from UK and got all 3 their shoes from UK. However I had to get the uniform for youngest DD in WA-DSO from Zaks. Zaks have a lot of uniforms at the moment, if your DH is here already maybe he can go over to Jumeriah and get at least a set to start with, be careful with the sizes. Best to let your DH have the size you need.

The pants have no logo and are a standard navy/pinstripe. Since you have daughters they will be wearing the navy/pin striped culottes. The blouses have a logo and are a set style. The yellow polo shirts the FS's wear also have a logo. The hats have logos also. The swimmers are navy blue and almost all children wear the same bought from Zaks. The sports shorts are navy no logo and the sports shirts are white polo with a logo. I have no idea if you would be able to get any of the uniform pieces from the UK. All uniform pieces are available from Zaks. HTH
