Uniform Shop
To all families:
With 1st term nearly to an end we are now looking towards Term 2 and winter uniform.
The Uniform shop will only be operating between 10.30am and 2.30pm on Thursday 29th March, last day of term.
The uniform shop will NOT be open during the school holidays as we have a 2 week change over uniform period at the start of Term 2.
The uniform shop will reopen on the first day of Term 2, Tuesday 17th April, from normal trading hours, 8.30am to 4.30 pm and then Thursdays 12noon to 4pm.
All families are reminded that the Noone on-campus shop is available on line at Noone Imagewear. You just need to register, log on and click The Hamilton and Alexandra College. These items will be supplied only when the shop is open and can be sent to your child’s class or posted.
We do suggest for new students that you call and try on sizes to get the correct fit, as with out knowing the correct size it makes organising uniform extremly hard.
Families are also reminded that other than international students uniform can NOT be placed on school accounts and needs to be paid for before it can be given to the students.
While we endeavour to have all items in stock some times due to manufacturing time or sudden demand we run out. So please plan ahead for your child’s needs as we hate to disappoint if we don’t have your size on hand. Some items can take up to 6 weeks to supply.
Uniform can be paid for online, over the phone by credit card or in store with cash or credit card. At this stage we are not able to provide paywave. Cheques are also accepted but must be made out to Noone Imagewear NOT the school.
We do hope all families have a lovely Easter break and we look forward to seeing you in Term 2.

'Boots For All'
‘Boots For All’ was a campaign which ran a few years ago that aimed to promote an active and socially inclusive Australia through the promotion of sport. With the new Year 10 camp heading to the Northern Territory in June and spending some time in remote areas with indigenous youth, we thought it a great time to create our own campaign to collect sporting shoes, in particular footy boots, so that the Year 10s can distribute them to needy students on their visit.
As part of our community service activity, Berry is asking families from both campuses of the school to donate their kids' used and unwanted sports shoes and footy boots so they can be taken to remote communities in the Northern Territory and Western Australia for children who play the national game in bare feet. Football is really important in these communities that have so little, and therefore we understand how significant a pair of boots could be.
Many people may be contemplating a new pair of shoes and boots for the winter sports season so please put aside the old pair and consider donating rather than binning! There will be a box for collection in the Tower Building to place boots/shoes in throughout Term 2, plus Mr. Sanders’ and Mrs Ogle’s Mentor groups will be collecting regularly. Mr Sanders will also be involved in collecting at the Junior Campus. The mentor’s students will also be helping clean the shoes to make sure they are ready for their new owners. If you want to donate earlier, we will certainly take them off your hands!
If you are willing to donate an old pair, or perhaps even buy a new pair, it would be greatly appreciated. This campaign will run throughout Term 2, finishing in early June when the Year 10 campers will head north.
Thanks in advance,
Mr Phil Sanders, Mrs Jody Ogle and Berry Mentees
