Uniform

It is our policy that all students wear school uniform when attending school, or when participating in a school-organised event outside normal school hours. Our policy regarding school uniform is based on the notion that school uniform:

promotes a sense of pride in the school
engenders a sense of community and belonging towards the school
is practical and smart
identifies the students with the school
is fair and makes students feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance and removes peer pressure to dress in ‘designer’ fashions
is regarded as suitable wear for school and good value for money by most parents/carers
can assist identification of strangers on school premises
is designed with health and safety in mind

Our latest uniform policy can be found under the policies section of our website.
