Just been shopping to pick up the kids school uniform. Decided to get it out of the way early in the holidays because towards the end it's a nightmare finding the right sizes. Some of the uniform has to be bought direct from the school, so here's the costs:-
For the four younger ones who are in Junior school (ages 4 through to 9) I had to buy 4 sweaters, 4 PE kits, 4 Reading Folders from the school totalling £90.
For the eldest who starts secondary school in September, I had to buy a sweater, blazer, PE kit, and tie from school totalling £100.
On top of that, I've had to pay out for 5 new coats, 5 pairs of trousers, 4 skirts/pinafores, 4 kagools (since the youngest four have to walk to and from school in all weather) 4 pairs of plimsoles, 5 pairs of trainers, 5 pairs of school shoes, 5 packs of black school socks and 1 pack of white sports socks, 5 pairs of Wellington Boots and two school bags coming to a total of almost £500.
As well as that, I still have to pick up all stationery items for Shannon, 4 lunchboxes and 5 waterbottles.
So, to date, £690 with an additional £30 or so to still pay out.
