School Uniform
It is our policy that all students wear uniform when attending school, or when participating in a school-organised event outside normal school hours. Our uniform policy 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 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 Uniform Policy can be found under the policies section of our website.
Uniform Requirements:
- Grey, single-breasted blazer with the school badge.
- White shirt, long or short sleeved, with pointed collar. Shirts must be tucked in at all times.
- School tie.
- Pullover or cardigan, v-necked and grey.
- Plain black shoes. Trainers and boots are not acceptable.
