Kinderville Uniforms

Our uniforms are designed to be aesthetic, practical and comfortable. Rather than buy "off the shelf", Kinderville's custom designed uniforms are upgraded every few years in keeping with current trends.

The Case for Uniforms

The Implementation of a uniform program at Kinderville is our way of maintaining your child’s safety and ensuring the best possible learning environment. These are just some of the positive associations with wearing school uniforms:


1.Improving the Learning Environment

Children tend to view uniforms as work clothes and take school more seriously. Uniforms have a positive effect on student achievement.


2.Bolstering Self-Confidence

By eliminating a reason to feel self-conscious, uniforms can help improve a child’s confidence and may lead to greater class participation.


3.Increasing Parental Participation

The added responsibility of parents ensuring their children wear uniforms to school leads to a stronger working relationship between school and home.


4.Curtailing Peer Pressure

Uniforms usually reduce the competition among students to wear certain (and nearly always expensive) brands of clothing.


5.Influencing Classroom Discipline

Uniforms promote good behaviour and provide an improved environment for learning.


6.Making Students Safer

No more “gang colours.” With uniforms, there isn’t any reason to rob a student of his or her expensive clothing. Also, people who don’t belong are easy to spot on school grounds
