Uniform Shop Information

As many of you know, our new uniform supplier Noone had their first day of trading at the College on Friday of last week. I would like to extend a warm welcome to the new uniform shop staff, and thank the existing staff who have decided to stay on and continue with Noone. I would also like to thank all of the College and Noone staff who worked hard behind the scenes over the last couple of weeks to ensure a smooth transition and successful shop opening. I am grateful to the parent community for their patience throughout this transition and it is my hope that we can all continue working together to improve the uniform experience for staff, students and parents.

 

I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate a few key pieces of information about the shop and the uniforms that will be sold:

  • Noone will continue selling current uniforms in stock while they work on producing our uniform designs. Transition to Noone uniform items may take up to 12 months depending on the production process and the remaining stock volumes.
  • Noone will supply formal hats for all students to purchase in Term 4 2022 and collect at the start of the 2023 school year. Further information will be provided for families at a later date.
  • Noone will supply all 1st sports uniforms from the start of 2023.
  • Noone will work with the College to plan and commence running a second-hand uniform shop within the next 12 months.
  • Year 11 2022 students who wish to have yellow trim added to their blazer for Year 12 may return their blazer in Term 4 and Noone will facilitate this process.  Further information regarding the fee and collection schedule will be communicated to our Year 11 families at a later date.
  • Noone will offer online shopping for parents. The online shop will be operational on Friday 9 September.
  • Noone can be contacted via email at mca@noone.com.au and by phone on 07 3858 6469.
