I came across this and thought it was an interesting endorsement of CH uniform & traditions by the HM; and rather nicely expressed. Fear not! :D

Also interesting that at least two of the other Heads refer to the CH uniform. And may I say that David Fleming's contribution neatly underlines why I wouldn't ever have contemplated sending my kids to Brockhurst (even if I could have afforded it) though many round here do... very peculiar point of view.

People have worried that the uniform will go in the past... I think it is one of the things that will stay...

Bishop Pearce, in his Annals of Christ's Hospital, simply assumed the uniform would go when the school moved from London to Horsham. That was 110 years ago.
