Uniform
Introduction
We believe that high standards of uniform help to establish the tone of Ormiston Meridian Academy and provide a clear identity enabling students to identify with their academy.
Students should wear their academy uniform with pride, remembering to be smart on all occasions. The table below shows the compulsory and optional items and where you can purchase them from:
