I went to the public school but our headmistress was an elderly unmarried Catholic woman who had gone to school with the nuns..

the Catholic kids at our high school had all gone to the other primary/elementary school in our small town...the convent school..

The Catholic kids went to the convent for primary school, the Protestants went to the public school...only Catholic kids who were juveniles had to go to the public school after they got expelled by the nuns from the convent...and we didn’t have very many of them..

In New Zealand we wore uniforms like they do in England...

The only difference in our uniform was the color..

The public school had red, the convent school had yellow...

and the Catholic kids arrived at our high school already knowing what was expected of them in the way of dress and conduct and how to bluff their way through LOL

we didn’t have skirts...just a long tunic with big box pleats..and no waistline...and a belt..in the winter

and a cotton tunic with a poodle skirt in the summer..

under it we wore a white long sleeved button up shirt with a tie in black and red angled stripes in the winter and a white short sleeved blouse no tie in the summer..

black laced up leather shoes all year with black stockings in the winter and white bobby socks in the summer...

in high school we wore a straw hat and would be suspended if we didn’t still have it on all the way home..

Wow! We sound like strippers compared! Of course this was New Orleans-in the 60’s. We did havea-line grey wool skirts tho and blazers,over white cotton blouses, which we wore in September.Now September is so hot we would pass out in wool blazers and skirts. Also-no air conditioning then!
I burned those hated uniforms at the end of senior year. Still can’t look at saddle oxfords.

We didn’t have a summer uniform until I was about 10..

We wore the thick woolen tunic all year around until then..

It was hot in the summer..

but in primary/elementary school we used to take our socks and shoes off and run bare feet at “playtime” (recess) and lunchtime...(No Miss Archer as yet) LOL
