School Uniform

St Joseph's uniform consists of a black blazer with badge, white shirt/blouse, black trousers/skirt and a red and white striped school tie.

A popular and acceptable alternative to the blazer is a red school sweatshirt with badge motif, worn with a white collared polo shirt. In summer, a red and white fine check dress for the girls is attractive and convenient. In winter, the girls may wear plain, black trousers. All of the above can be purchased locally, or through the PSC.

PE Uniform

For PE, a T-shirt, shorts and gym shoes are required. In line with West Lothian Council dress code policy for school children, we ask that pupils do not wear sports tops associated with particular football teams or which carry inappropriate logos.

Children are encouraged to keep PE kit and soft shoes in school for use at any time. Bags for storing their belongings can be supplied.

In the interests of safety and security, the wearing of jewellery is discouraged.

We recommend that all articles of clothing are clearly marked with your child's name, especially in the early years.
