The Schoolwear Shop, Commercial Street, Dundee supplies all items of clothing. Good quality waterproof fleeces are also available. Tesco also run an online service where you can order Ancrum Rd cardigans, jumpers etc. with the Ancrum Rd logo printed on them. These are delivered direct to your home.

During the summer months - May until October - navy and white checked/striped dresses may be worn.

It is advisable for pupils to have an overall or old shirt for painting etc.

Physical Education

Pupils are expected to come to school dressed in their PE kit on their allocated PE days. Each class will have two PE days per week. Clothing should be suitable for physical activity; football team strips should not be worn. Pupils should wear appropriate gym shoes or trainers.

All jewellery must be removed on PE days. If earrings cannot be removed, they should be securely taped.

Upper classes will have one hour of outdoor PE each week and will therefore need suitable outdoor clothing, including jackets.

We encourage our pupils to take a pride in their school uniform and appearance and are confident that you will support us in our efforts to maintain a high standard of dress.
