It has been great to see so many of our students returning to school in full school uniform.
School uniforms keep students focused on their education, not their clothes. School uniforms create a level playing field among students, reducing peer pressure and bullying. Wearing uniforms enhances school pride, unity, and community spirit. School uniforms may improve attendance and discipline.
School uniforms also contribute to the personal safety of students by allowing easier recognition of students inside the school and in the community. School uniforms also encourage a sense of community within a school. As everyone is dressed the same,it is easier to find a sense of belonging among people your own age, making it easier to find and make friends
We would like to remind students and their families of our uniform policy for those who continue to be out of uniform. Please be mindful that being out of uniform may result in students not being permitted to attend academic or sporting events and the loss of other privileges. Please see attached Uniform Policy:
If you require any financial assistance regarding uniforms, please do not hesitate to contact the school. All inquiries are handled confidentially and professionally.
We would like to remind our families that The Premier's Back to School NSW Vouchers program provides 3 x $50 vouchers, totalling $150 for each eligible student. The vouchers can be used towards the cost of school uniforms, shoes, bags, technology, textbooks and other eligible expenses.
