Uniforms

The school uniform identifies learners as belonging to Rhenish Girls' High School.  The School expects learners to wear the uniform during school hours, while travelling to and from school, and when engaged in school activities out of school hours.  All learners must wear uniform dress strictly according to the recognized design.
