If any changes are made to the school uniform expectations, parents and students will have up to six months to purchase and comply with the new requirements.

With the switch to our new supplier, InSchoolwear, in June 2024, the only change to the current uniform pieces is the PE shorts. All PE shorts must match the authorized InSchoolwear PE shorts by January 2025.

Please ensure that all clothing and uniform pieces for your children are labelled with their first and last names, so that they may be claimed at the Lost and Found (Main Office) when lost.
