MARKING of CLOTHES

Name Tapes

Every item of clothing must be clearly marked with the pupil's name and House  (see below), without which clothes cannot be identified.  Footwear should also be marked.  Name tapes (embroidered or iron-on) may be ordered through the College Shop.  Any unmarked clothing sent to Wellington will be marked by the Housekeeper and parents must expect to be charged.

Games Clothes (for new pupils only)

New pupils should have their initials embroidered on the outside right breast of track suits and rugby shirts and on the outside right leg of  shorts.  Initials should also be clearly marked on the outside of trainers.  These initials will not necessarily be needed when the original garments are replaced.

Items of Value

Any valuable item, such as  a watch, calculator, iPod, phone or laptop, should have a pupil's initials or number engraved or indelibly marked on it.
