Term 4 Uniform Update

by | Oct 31, 2022

Dear Parents & Caregivers,

Thank you to all of our parents who support our school by ensuring their children are dressed in the appropriate uniform. As we head towards 2023, I would like to remind parents of current uniform expectations and outline some changes for the coming year. All decisions have been based on the findings from the uniform surveys and conversations with staff, School Advisory Council, and CEWA Representatives. 

CURRENT REMINDERS

  • The skort is able to be worn all year round on formal uniform days. 
  • The old formal skirt is no longer available, however, girls will be able to continue to wear this item until the end of 2023. 
  • The old formal girls’ shorts are no longer available, however, girls will be able to continue to wear this item until the end of 2023.
  • The old sports shorts are no longer available, however, students will be able to continue to wear this item until the end of 2023.
  • Girls are able to wear formal trousers all year round on formal uniform days. 
  • Girls are able to wear the formal dress all year round on formal uniform days. 
  • Boys are able to wear formal shorts and formal pants all year round on formal uniform days.
  • White socks are not to be worn with the formal uniform.
  • Girls wear navy blue tights or navy blue socks with their formal uniform.
  • Boys wear grey socks with their formal uniform.
  • All students are to wear white socks with their sports uniform.
  • Sports shoes do not need to white. These can be any colour; however, conservative colours are preferred. 
  • Plain black, leather-look sports shoes may be worn by both boys and girls with both formal and sports uniform. The sports shoes must have no obvious advertising logos. 

 

CHANGES IN 2023

  • From January 2023, families will be able to purchase a new sports tracksuit. This consists of a blue and red jacket and matching tracksuit pants. The new items are a more modern design, more durable, more cost-effective, and available through a reliable supplier.
  • The current tracksuit jumper and pants will be phased out. Parents will still be able to purchase these items until stocks are depleted. Some discounts on these items will be available. Students will be able to continue to wear these items until the end of 2023.

 

The Uniform Shop is open 5 days a week during school hours. Orders may also be placed by phone and via email. 

 

Thanking you,

 

Susan Milton
