Uniform News

Yellow Top Recycling Program

We would like to remind families that this is the final year that the 'old' yellow short sleeve and long sleeve polo tops can be worn by students. It is expected that all NLPS students will wear the blue short or long sleeve polo tops (available from DCS Uniform) from Term 1, 2024. 

All other 'old' uniform items can be continued to be worn and it is intended that these will phase out over time.

 

We have partnered with uniform recycling service 'Upparel' to provide families with a sustainable way to dispose of their yellow tops. From the start of Term 3, a tub will be available at the front office for families to leave their yellow tops only for recycling. 

To find out more about Upparel and their sustainable approach to textile recycling you can visit www.upparel.com.au
