Children MUST NOT be at school with:

• coloured varnished nails
• hand drawings or writing on skin
• tattoos or decals
• The School Administration reserves the right to insist on appropriate hair design, cut and colour. The criteria being that such things be modest and in keeping with the need for uniformity and in an effort to comply to health standards (eg. hair tied tightly to reduce of risk of headlice).
• Hair attire eg. ribbons, scrunchies / clips must be red, white or teal in colour. Bands to fasten hair may be same colour as hair.
• Wide brimmed Red hats (Grades 1-6) or Teal (Prep) are an absolute must in accordance with the school's Sunsafe Policy.
• Please ensure children carry a note of explanation, email or phone call for any long term variance of the code of dress requirement.
• Images of the correct uniform may be found on our website.

When children are wearing the school uniform outside of school premises/hours, it should be worn with pride and decorum.

On occasion students may be required to wear either of these uniforms when representing the school.

Wet Weather -

Children may need to adapt foot attire if the weather remains wet for long periods of time. Children should always have shoes at school to comply with our Workplace Health and Safety regulations.
