( Saturday, April 9, 2011 9:13 PM ) There will be a comprehensive attire check on 14 April that will include hair and nails, bearing and turnout. All cadets are to follow the BP St John Standing Orders and school rules strictly. Disciplinary action may be taken on any cadet who fails to pass the attire check, as ample warning has been given beforehand.


Things to look out for:
1)Berets are to be seasoned, and the rim of the beret should be parallel to the ground, with the crest above the left eye.
2)For the nursing cadets, hair should not be flying out, hairnet must be worn properly, and those whose hair are touching their shoulder are to bun up their hair. Only black hair accessories are allowed. For the ambulance cadets, no fringe should be seen, no side burns, and hair should not be touching the collar.
3)Shirts are to be tucked in all the way.
4)Belts are to be worn properly, with the buckle at the center and the metal end sticking out appropriately.
