Uniform Expectations

The Fairhills High School School Council unanimously supports the concept of a school uniform for all students. A neat uniform helps foster school spirit and develop pride in students’ personal appearance. Parents are expected to give full support to the school’s uniform policy. Council considers the uniform to be a fundamental aspect of Fairhills High School’s educational policy and ethos.

Parents/Guardians are advised to purchase all garments (except shoes) from the uniform shop to ensure that everything is the correct style. The School Uniform shop is operated by Buxwear Uniforms and is located in R4 at the school. It is open on Thursday’s 12pm-4pm.
