Dear Parents and Students,

You may remember that earlier this year we invited interested parents and students to join our Uniform Committee (K-12). Over the past several months, the team has worked closely with uniform suppliers to find options that truly reflect the character and spirit of our school: fresh, unified, and forward‑looking.

Our committee— made up of principals from all divisions, parents representing a range of grade levels, and student representatives from both Middle and High School— reviewed community feedback and survey results to ensure we addressed key concerns around quality, comfort, and affordability.

After a rigorous selection process—where we invited eight vendors, with five presenting in person with samples—and used a data‑based evaluation system to rate each vendor on quality, design and branding, pricing, responsiveness and collaboration, as well as purchase facilitation, we’re pleased to share that a new provider has been selected.  

The upcoming uniform range introduces exciting updates: new cardigan and quarter‑zip pullover options, improved skirts with practical pockets, and P.E. shorts made with more flexible fabrics, just to name a few. These fresh designs and fabrics not only offer better comfort and value but also more clearly reflect our school colors and identity. It’s the first major update in many years and represents our commitment to both continuous improvement and Vision 2050. 

We understand that uniform changes can raise concerns about cost, especially for families with more than one child. To support a smooth transition, we’ll have a gradual rollout: most current items will remain acceptable for some time, and we’ll share a detailed timeline soon. As part of the agreement, uniform prices will be honored for the next five years, ensuring stability and predictability for families as we transition to the new range. 

If possible, please hold off on purchasing additional current‑style items, as new designs and slightly revised colors will launch with our new company in Fall 2026. For any questions, please contact communications@ics.edu.hk.

We’re genuinely excited about this refresh and confident it will benefit both students and families, bringing our school spirit to life through a more modern, cohesive look. Thank you all for your enthusiasm and partnership as we take this next step together.

Warm regards,

Erin Johnson, Elementary Assistant Principal
