Hi Rosie
Cygnet wool rich 4ply does a grey - but it's quite pale. Silvery really, not school grey.
If you needed a few skeins perhaps you could get it some dyed for you?

Button has Lang Color on her p2tog ebay store. It is a darker grey and you get a spool of reinforcement thread with it for the heels and the toes. It is good yarn, I'm just doing some Jaywalkers in it! It's £3.55 for a 50g skein.

A shop close to me sells Wool Craft Superwash plus more. Do you want me to see if they have a solid 'school grey'? The shop is at the back of the post office so it'd be easy to post it on to you straight away.
They have lots of colours but none of them girly
