Uniform in 2020 - new uniform and transitioning

Simon Finnimore —

From 2020 we have a new uniform that must be worn by all Year 7s. For all other year groups, there is a transitional period. This is explained below.

In 2020 Year 7 boys and girls will be wearing the following:

  • Green/black polo shirt (as in photo 1 but with logo)

  • Either Black pants, shorts, skirts or lavalava

  • Black jacket (as in photo 2 but with logo)

  • Black shoes or sandals with straps

  • P.E. top as in photo 3 with own black sports shorts

Photographs are at the end of this article.


In 2020 it is highly recommended that Year 11 students are in the new uniform as follows:

  • Striped blouse/shirt (as in photo 4)

  • Either black pants, shorts, skirts or lavalava

  • Black jacket (as in photo 5 but with logo)

  • Black shoes or sandals with straps

  • Tie and blazers for representative and formal occasions (as in photo 6)

In 2021 Year 11 students must be in the new uniform.

In 2022 all students are to be wearing the new uniform.
