School Uniform

CATHIE ZELAS —

A big thank you to all of you who send your children along to school in our correct uniform. It does look smart when worn correctly.

Please note that our uniform is designed to be trans-seasonal. As the winter approaches, your child can choose to wear a red or black thermal underneath the polo shirt if needed. Please also remember to send a warm jacket along each day for outside play.

Those of you new to our school may not be aware that our current uniform requirements are relatively recent. Extensive community and student consultation was undertaken in 2014/15 as there was considerable dissatisfaction with the appearance and colours of the old uniform. This was followed by further consultation by the BOT in 2017 regarding overall satisfaction with the new uniform. The vast majority of parents (77%) expressed satisfaction.

We continue to listen to parent feedback and work closely with Argyle Uniforms to make ongoing improvements to the uniform. Examples have been the change in polo shirt fabric to one that is more snag resistant and the recent change to micro fleece fabric for the pullover.
