In the junior school, uniform is not compulsory. However most students tend to wear the Amuri uniform.
In the senior school, uniform is compulsory except for Year 13 students and details are listed below.
The shoes for all students are the same – plain lace up brown or plain black school shoes or sandals (not sports shoes).
A separate sports uniform is required and details of this are also listed. For sporting events with other schools, part or all of the uniform is supplied and students are expected to wear correct uniform at all times.
A second hand uniform market is run and the PTA have responsibility for this. They will sell uniforms on a ‘behalf of’ basis and take a small commission or they will accept donated clothing for sale. To find out what is available, contact the school office who will advise the current contact.
For any uniform issues, contact the Deputy Principal, Mrs Mossman.

Uniform Problems?
If a Year 7 – 13 student has any problem with an item of uniform, they should take a note
from the parent/guardian to the Form Teacher in the morning for a ‘green slip’ excusing
them for a brief period until the problem is corrected. The student should carry this slip
with them and it saves potential lengthy inquiries from staff all on the same issue! The
same procedure applies for sports uniform problems.
