Shop Accounts

Labelling

All items are available to purchase with cash, debit/credit card or charged to account. Purchases on account are made on production of a valid School Shop card.

Everything brought to school must be clearly marked with name tapes.

This includes: all uniform, home clothing, bedding and towels. Name tapes should show, at least, the pupil’s surname followed by their House initial (e.g. Bloggs RH). A supply of name tapes should be left with your daughter’s Matron for naming any uniform purchased during term time.

All pupils are allocated an account when they arrive at Sherborne Girls.

Accounts are automatically capped, with an allowance set at £250 (per term), for purchases of stationery, toiletries and tuck in the School Shop, as well as drinks and snacks at Queenie’s Café in the Merritt Centre.

Parents who wish to change their daughter’s allowance can email the Shop schoolshop@sherborne.com with the desired amount. Limits can be adjusted (up or down) at any time during the school term. Setting an allowance for uniform is not necessary as all single purchases over £30 require parental permission, which can be given via email, a phone call or your daughter can collect a permission form for signature by the relevant HM or Matron.

All purchases made on account will be collated and included on the termly bill in the Extras Schedule.

The School Shop offers a nametape sewing service (chargeable and for SG School Shop purchases only).

This service is subject to availability.

Tuck boxes and trunks/suitcases should be clearly marked with the pupil’s name and House initial.

Books

Mouthguards

All required class textbooks will be loaned to pupils by subject teachers. Loaned textbooks must be returned to the relevant department at the end of a school year or course. Failure to return textbooks or library books will result in a charge for the costs of replacement. If a textbook or set text requires annotation by the pupil, this will be charged for and the cost will appear on the subsequent bill. In this case, the pupil will retain the book.

All pupils who play lacrosse or hockey are required to have a mouthguard to protect their teeth. The Medical Officers of Schools Association sees danger in ill-fitting self-applied mouthguards, and we advise that to conform to the requirements of the sports authority, mouthguards should be individually fitted by a reputable dental technician after the mould has been made by a dental practitioner. Alternatively, at the start of the Michaelmas Term, we arrange for a company to come into school to fit OPRO mouthguards.

Lacrosse Goggles The wearing of goggles for lacrosse is mandatory for all players. A small selection of goggles is available to purchase from the School Shop.
