Galen Catholic College As part of Galen’s strategies to provide a safe school environ- ment, and especially to increase awareness of skin cancer, staff and students are required to wear hats whenever they are outside in Terms 1 and 4. All students are required to wear Galen’s Anti-Cancer Council approved close-weave blue, broad-brimmed hat or the Galen cap hat. Galen also encourages students, parents, teachers and other staff to wear protective clothing and sunscreen during high-risk times such as lunch times, sports activities, camps and excur- sions. Students without hats will be restricted to designated shaded areas when they are outside. The school endeavours to provide adequate shade structures for students but students are also expected to make responsible decisions about sun protection. The school will ensure that school uniform and hats are available for purchase from the uniform store. Staff and students will be encouraged to wear sunscreen. SunSmart Policy The uniform is a mark of identification with the College and the ideals for which it stands. Therefore it is expected that students will wear the uniform with pride.

Galen Catholic College
As part of Galen’s strategies to provide a safe school environ-ment, and especially to increase awareness of skin cancer, staff and students are required to wear hats whenever they are outside in Terms 1 and 4. All students are required to wear Galen’s Anti-Cancer Council approved close-weave blue, broad-brimmed hat or the Galen cap hat. Galen also encourages students, parents, teachers and other staff to wear protective clothing and sunscreen during high-risk
times such as lunch times, sports activities, camps and excur-sions. Students without hats will be restricted to designated shaded areas when they are outside. The school endeavours to provide adequate shade structures for students but students are also expected to make responsible decisions about sun protection. The school will ensure that school uniform and hats are available for purchase from the uniform store. Staff and students will be encouraged to wear sunscreen.
