Uniform Shop

Opening hours

Term 3 opening hours are Monday to Friday, 7:45am to 12:00pm.

Summer Uniform

All students are required to start Term 4 in their summer uniform. We encourage families to try on their summer uniforms now and double-check sizing. Please come in as soon as possible, avoid the congestion, and take advantage of our current good supply of second-hand uniforms.

Online purchasing launched

We are pleased to announce that our online Uniform Shop is now live. In addition to our on-campus store, the online shop offers a streamlined, user-friendly experience, making it easier than ever to manage your orders from the convenience of your phone or computer, while still allowing you to visit us in-store.

Custom Fitting

Custom Uniforms are available at the Uniform Shop. Now is the time to bring your child into the shop if you require a special-size uniform for next year, as many uniform items are sourced from overseas suppliers and take time to be customised.

Sports Bag Embroidery

The Uniform Shop offers surname embroidery on sports bags for only $15. Please drop your bag off at the Uniform Shop by 12pm on Thursday, 24 September, so it can be embroidered over the holiday break and returned in time for use in Term 4.

Secondhand Uniforms

We encourage families to be sustainable by recycling unwanted second-hand uniform items. In particular, winter uniform items like blazers and trousers, as well as Music Uniform jackets and pants. We welcome donations, but also pay modest amounts for good-quality second-hand items.

Our second-hand processing form is attached – simply fill it in and include it in the bag with your items. Please ensure that items are washed before bringing them in, as we do not pay out on items requiring mending or laundering.

Sustainable footwear choices at our Uniform Shop

Students can try on sample shoes at the shoe stand, then parents simply scan the QR code to place an order.

These Derby-style shoes from Perth brand Make Good are crafted from plant-based materials, including mycelium fibres (yes, mushrooms!), cellulose, natural latex and organic cotton – a biodegradable alternative to conventional leather production, which is resource-intensive and relies on toxic chemicals that can contaminate waterways and soils.

Visit the Uniform Shop to explore this sustainable option for your family.
