The new Balmacewen uniform is available for purchase from the U shop.

Balmacewen has updated our school uniform. This has been phased out over 2026 and by 2027 all students will be expected to be wearing the new uniform.

All students will wear a unisex polo that is navy and has the school logo. We will also have a new skirt in the 'macewen' tartan (which replaces the kilt) and navy shorts. All students will wear the new socks (black with red trim) and the navy quarter zip merino.

All students wear black lace up shoes, see images below.

PE gear, hoodies, shoes and school jacket all remain the same.

Please see images attached.

Next year; All students are expected to be in the new school uniform. NO students should be wearing the old uniforms.

All uniform is available for purchase from the U shop on Filleul Street
