General Information

Winter Uniform

We will officially change into winter uniform after the long weekend in June. As the weather is cooling down, students can wear their winter uniform, including tie, before the long weekend if they choose. We ask that whichever uniform your child wears, that they wear it correctly - please do not mix summer and winter uniform items. Thank you for your support with this. 

School uniform should be worn Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Sport Uniform is to be worn Wednesday and Friday. 

Labelling of Uniform Items

As the weather is cooling down, we are seeing many jumpers and jackets in our lost property. It is impossible to return these items if they are not labelled. Your assistance is labelling all uniform items is greatly appreciated.

Please continue to monitor your children for any Covid symptoms particularly as we enter the winter months. If a student or staff are  unwell and have any symptoms they should always test for COVID-19 and not attend school until they are symptom free. 

If a student or staff member receives a positive result with a RAT or PCR test they should:

1. Record the positive result through the Services NSW website or app
2. Notify the school of the positive results as soon as possible
