School Uniforms
Traditional & Community-Focused
At WRCA, our school uniform reflects our commitment to being a community of faith-filled learners. Simple, modest, and practical, it expresses our Christ-centered values and pursuit of excellence while supporting full participation in school life. Our uniform also connects us to the history and traditions of WRCA. Worn with pride, it represents our shared identity, values, and commitment to learning and growth.
We have mandatory uniform specifications for each student group at White Rock Christian Academy.
This information is also available online at WRCA Uniform Shop – InSchoolwear. (Code: wrca).
- Policy Update: We’ve updated our Uniform Policy to include an optional ¼ zip sweater, providing a warm, professional, uniform-approved alternative to hoodies based on student feedback. The sweater is now available through our supplier.LINKS: Uniform Policy | 1/4 Zip Sweater (Login with Customer Account)
