Change of Uniform Supplier
Mentone Girls’ Secondary College has appointed Bob Stewart Uniform Specialist Mentone as the College’s uniform supplier. The uniform is not changing, only the official supplier.
Bob Stewart's Mentone store will have all MGSC uniforms items available to purchase from Saturday 13 April. Costume World will continue to sell MGSC uniforms until 30 March. There will be a two week period when new uniforms cannot be purchased from either supplier.
The Department of Education and Training (DET) requires schools to undergo a tender process before entering into contracts over a certain value. This is to ensure that the school and the community receive the best value for money. As a result of our procurement process undertaken in 2018, Bob Stewart were appointed as the MGSC uniform supplier on the expiry of the current contract with Costume World. Bob Stewart is an experienced and specialist uniform supplier with stores serving schools across Melbourne. They supply a number of schools in the local area and have a store in Balcombe Road, Mentone. Bob Stewart met a number of critical criteria in the tender including price, location and support for school families.
Costume World has provided excellent service over many years as the official uniform supplier. This was a period of significant changes to the uniform including the introduction of a new logo and additional uniform options such as shorts and pants. We thank Sherrin and the Costume World team for their work and support for our community and wish them well.
