School Uniform

Uniform information has been sent to parents and hopefully you are familiar with the requirements.

The staff, students and parents developed the uniform in an effort to ensure that our students could promote a sophisticated and positive image for our school and its community. The uniform has helped

establish a strong sense of identity and sense of pride in the school and we appreciate the student and parent support already given to us to ensure we can continue to promote the school positively.

We respectfully request that you support the school in its endeavour to ensure that all students are wearing school uniform. If you have any questions or require any assistance with uniform please contact the school.
