Uniform
The school community expects that students wear their uniform with pride and care, and present themselves as positive representatives of the school at all times.
Uniform generally falls under 3 categories – Summer, Winter and Sport. At all times the College reinforces the wearing of a Uniform that is “fit for purpose”. In short, that means that on a day where a student has a PE class, or representing the school at a sporting event, that they are in full sport uniform. Likewise the school uniform requires the wearing of fully enclosed leather shoes – this is to comply with OH & S requirements for activities undertaken in Technology, Science & Art subjects.
All clothing uniform items, including the school bag, are available from Hip Pocket, 173 Pakenham Street Echuca.
