2021-2022 School Uniform Information via McCarthy Uniforms:
This year, McCarthy is recommending early shop times to avoid late-August line ups. Long wait times will be the reality this year, given that McCarthy's must adhere to strict social distancing measures and simply can't accept normal in-store volumes. In some cases, only five customers will be permitted in stores at any one time. McCarthy's has informed us that to support families during this time they have implemented an installment payment program (online only), introduced volume discount buying options and invested in a variety of web support tools to make online shopping easy & fast! All school uniform products can be exchanged for up to a year and returned until September.
Below are three ways to shop for school uniforms.
There are three ways to shop for your school uniform:
