The Pangbourne College shop is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 3:30pm and sells a full range of items for day-to-day campus life.
This is the only place where the Pangbourne uniform and sportswear can be purchased, with new pupils arranging uniform appointments for a personal fitting service the summer before they join the College. Two seamstresses are available to alter students’ uniform, and the shop manager and assistant are also on hand to help out.
Pangbourne pupils each have an account looked after by the shop to which any purchases throughout the year can be charged and then added to their termly bill. This ensures they can access essential items without the need to carry cash,
Old Pangbournian memorabilia is also available for purchase, including ties, scarves and books.
