Mrs Nicole Smith | Head of Primary

Welcome Back to School

It is always wonderful to welcome back our students to the College and hear the sounds of laughter and squeals of delight as they see each other again after a significant break from school. I hope that you have all had a healthy, safe and happy holiday period with your family and friends.

Summer Uniform

Uniform is an important part of demonstrating that we belong together and represents who we are as a College. Thank you for partnering with us as we teach our students the importance of respecting these uniform guidelines.

As the weather warms up, please ensure all students have a hat with them each day for sun protection. Summer uniforms are now compulsory from the start of Term 4.

Black socks are not part of our formal or sports uniform and should not be worn to school.  White socks are worn with the girls' uniform and sports uniform and boys are to wear grey socks.

Hats at School  

It is now compulsory for Primary students to wear their hats at recess, lunchtime and whenever outside during sport or play.  Please take time with your children to find and re-label their sun hats.
