The Friends of Pate's runs a highly valued Nearly New Uniform Shop situated in a portacabin next to the Cyber Hub and OED. It is open during term time on selected Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings throughout the year. 

Why buy new when you can save money, prevent waste, and support Pate's! 

We sell quality pre-loved Pate's school uniforms, including blazers, PE and games kits, jumpers, trousers, shirts, skirts, socks, bags, and shoes. 

Upcoming opening times are:

25 April 2026, 10am - 12pm

8 May 2026, 2pm - 4pm

Please keep an eye on our Facebook page for updates on opening times and upcoming dates.

Donations of clean, good quality, second-hand uniform and sports equipment are always much appreciated, especially cricket kit and odd socks. Items can be handed into the blue bins marked ‘Uniform Donations’ found in the Student Entrance at school, or you can bring them with you if you visit the shop.

We politely request that donations of black school trousers and white shirts are not made as we have too many to store – thank you.

📢 Volunteers run the Nearly New Uniform Shop, and we need your support! Could you, or someone you know, such as a grandparent, spare some time to help repair items, wash donations, or coordinate sales?
