School Uniform

Due to the current economic climate with increases to raw materials, production and transport this has had a direct affect on the cost of our school uniforms.

Lowes continues to explore alternative production methods to offer cost-saving solutions however, there will be a price increase which will come into effect in late October.

Please find the updated price list on our uniform page for your information.

School Carpark

The carpark gate opens at 2:00pm daily and we ask that parents who are parking to collect their children to please use the bays with white lines.

To alleviate congestion through the carpark and surrounding streets we ask parents to not arrive in the Kiss and Ride before 2:30pm as this prevents Pre-Kindy and Kindy parents who need to park to collect their children from being able to access vacate parking spots. You may be asked to move out of the Kiss and Ride if you arrive before this time.

When exiting the carpark at drop off and pick up time please turn left only so that the flow of traffic is not interrupted.
