Uniforms
CGB Uniforms are available from 2 local suppliers:
The CGB uniform provides a unity for students and a symbol that they belong to the CGB community. Students should wear their uniform with pride, both inside and outside the school grounds. In this respect, as in other respect, older students have the duty to provide a good role model for the younger ones.
Nursery, Reception, Year 1 and Year 2
The CGB Uniform is a full school tracksuit with polo shirt, socks and white or dark-coloured trainers. Velcro fastened shoes or trainers are an excellent idea at this age, as children often remove their shoes to protect the carpets in the classrooms.
For PE: tracksuit with or without shorts. A CGB cap is required.

Caps
A CGB House cap must be worn during outdoor activities as sun protection, but these should not be worn inside the school buildings as a matter of common courtesy.
Scarves
Only the CGB scarves are to be worn by the students.
Waterproof Clothing
It is recommended that students have wet weather clothing in school (boots are important for FS & KS1 students). This is especially important for wet departures.
