Supporting Information
Families joining Salesian College may find the following information useful to help them with the transition process.
School Uniform
All items of Salesian College School uniform can be purchased from Brenda’s Schoolwear, 130 Frimley Road, Camberley, GU15 2QN. or via their website.
There is an excellent School Uniform Shop, run by the PTA, which sells good quality second-hand uniform and sportswear donated by our families.
We recommend all items of uniform are marked with the students name so that we can return it to them.
Mobile Phones
At Salesian College, students in Years 7 to 11 are permitted to bring mobile phones to school at their own risk. Please note that the College does not accept responsibility for any loss, damage, or theft of mobile devices.
To support a respectful and focused learning environment, mobile phones must remain switched off and out of sight throughout the school day—including during breaks and lunchtimes.
In case of an emergency, students should go to the school office, where staff will assist them in making a phone call.
Mobile phones may be allowed on day trips or residential visits, but only with the explicit permission of the Party Leader. During these occasions, students are expected to use their phones appropriately and responsibly.
Sixth Form students may use mobile phones in the Sixth Form common room and, when appropriate, during A Level lessons—but only with the permission of the subject teacher and when it supports their learning.
To maintain a respectful atmosphere across the College, mobile phone use is not permitted in public areas or corridors.
School Lunches
At Salesian College, school lunches are compulsory and are freshly prepared on-site by our professional catering team from Thomas Franks. Meals are served daily in the Ref, where students enjoy a welcoming and sociable dining environment.
Each day, students can choose from a freshly prepared main meal (with a vegetarian option always available), alongside a wide variety of other options including:
-
Jacket potatoes
-
Pasta and soup
-
Sandwiches, paninis, and filled baguettes
-
An extensive salad bar
-
A choice of hot or cold desserts and fresh fruit
Our talented chefs also bring creativity to the menu with themed meals for special occasions such as Chinese New Year, Halloween, and Christmas, as well as ‘pop-up’ food stalls offering exciting samples like smoothies and sushi.
We are committed to catering for all students, including those with special dietary requirements. These can be discussed with our catering team at any point during the admissions process or school year.
