New Uniform Guidelines Uniform 2025

The College has been working through the consultation process of developing new uniform guidelines. Two new features which require your attention are:

 

1. The uniform at MMCRC will now be a twelve-month-a-year uniform. This allows for students to wear uniform commensurate with the weather being experienced. Reference to the traditional summer and winter uniform still used as items cannot be mixed and at a given time of wearing.

 

2. A breach system is being proposed for removable and non-removable items
