School is a preparation for life, and therefore at NLGS, we expect that the students shall take pride in themselves. We expect a high standard of personal appearance from all the students. The uniform policy helps students build their sense of loyalty, and encourages pride in their appearance.
If students are not in full uniform, they may not be able to attend lessons.
Blazers and Waistcoats are compulsory for all students. In winter, students have the option of wearing a navy jumper instead of the waistcoat.
Girls have the option of wearing school trousers or a skirt.
We do not permit extreme hair styles or colours, designer shirts, and decorated footwear as an individual fashion statement. Shoes must have black laces and no coloured stitching.
No decorative attachments are to be worn in the hair. Hair bands must be plain black or dark colour with a maximum of 50mm width. Make- up and nail varnish or nail extensions must not be worn at any time.
Long hair must be tied up. For boys, hair should be above the collar and no shorter than a grade three.
Boys should shave, as frequently as required.

At NLGS, we take pride in knowing each and every one of our students. We put our students at the centre of all we do, and promote a clear set of values, which underpin the NLGS culture. Our values are based on three pillars: ‘Bonitas, Scientia, Disciplina’, which is Latin for ‘Goodness, Knowledge, and Instruction’.
