Transition to New College Uniform
We are proud of our College uniform. A correctly worn uniform will present a positive image of our College
and our students. From January 2021, all students will be required to wear the new uniform.
In 2020 students are to wear items from the Summer Wardrobe in Terms 1 and 4 or Winter Wardrobe in
Terms 2 and 3. Sports uniform is to be worn on Sports and PE days or if required on excursions.
The College uniform is to be worn for special events such as Awards Night, school photos and excursions as
required.
The uniform must be clean, neat and in good repair. The uniform must be correctly worn at all times,
including while travelling to and from school. The blazer may be removed during the school day, however it
must be worn on all formal outings, opening and closing chapels and formal assemblies. On these occasions,
parents and students will be advised that “formal uniform is required”.
On days where the forecast is for temperatures of 32° or higher, students are not required to wear their
blazer.
Hats are compulsory when students are outside for sport or during recess and lunch time during Terms 1 and
4 and during extended times outdoors in Terms 2 and 3.
Parents must advise the College if their child is out of uniform.
