2026 Grade 6 tops

 

It's hard to believe but it is already time to order Grade 6 tops for 2026. Families will once again have the opportunity to purchase a special Kalinda Grade 6 Polo shirt or Hoodie. Some students may decide to order both. These tops are a wonderful way to 'stand out' as leaders of the school and whilst they are definitely not compulsory, I know the students eagerly await this rite of passage! Students in Grade 5 this year have already selected their favourite design.

 

Ordering for polo tops and hoodies will be online via Spartan Uniforms. I have attached the ordering information. 

 

Payments and queries will be handled by Spartan.

 

The ordering link will be live for Kalinda parents from 21st August to 12th September. No late orders can be accepted. 

Please note: samples of both items are available in Mrs Hopkins office for any families wanting to check against their child.
