Winter Uniform - Starting Monday 24 May

Please make it a priority to check current winter uniform sizes and to purchase any items you require. Winter uniform will be compulsory from Week 5 - Monday 24 May.

If you have any surplus or used uniform items that no longer meet your needs, the Student Hub gratefully accept clothing donations as we will lend out items to students that are missing something on the day.

SIGN-UPS CLOSE MONDAY 24th MAY (Week 5, Term 2)

Get ready, stay ready!

As a regular cyclist I am well aware of the risks involved in sharing the road with traffic. In most states throughout Australia, cyclists riding without a helmet can be expected to be stopped and fined by the police.

While Alice Springs has a network of great bike paths, it is impossible for the majority of St Philip’s students to get from home to school without using or crossing the road while riding. Two high risk intersections are very close to the College and in the past there have been near misses and the occasional accident involving students riding to and from the College. Thankfully, to date, these have not resulted in significant injury.

With this in mind, it is a College rule that students riding to and from the College should be wearing a helmet. Failure to do so may result in detention or alternative arrangements being made before the student is allowed to leave the College grounds.

Staff will be monitoring the bike shed closely in the coming weeks to ensure that all students are following these rules.
