Uniform News

Dear Parents/Caregivers,

From 2019 we have added a navy pinafore to our uniform choices.

Please note, these are optional only and are available in sizes 4 – 10 at a

cost of $40.

Pinafores will be available for special purchase during Term 1 of each

year through the order form below. Orders forms will also be at the front

office and uniform shop. Samples of each size are available to try on in

the uniform shop.

Orders need be placed, together with payment, by Monday 18th March

in order to have the pinafores delivered before the end of Term 1.

Please be aware that this is the only pinafore order for this year and very

limited stock will be kept in the uniform shop.

A reminder that our school dress code colours are navy and red and as

per others items of clothing garments worn under the pinafore need to

adhere to the dress code.

Kind regards,

Teresa Grandison

On behalf of the Uniform Committee
