Uniform

At Calasanctius College, we believe that our school uniform symbolises a proud tradition and identity in our local community. As representatives of the school, students are expected to continue this tradition by wearing the full uniform correctly, and to take pride in their personal appearance. The wearing of a school uniform promotes a sense of community where every student feels that they are part of a team working towards success. It supports a spirit of cooperation and togetherness as it reminds students that they are part of something much bigger than themselves. Our school uniform helps to develop a standard of dress that is reliable for everyone and promotes equality among students. We believe the wearing of a uniform promotes responsibility and accountability in our students. It is our expectation that every student who wears the Calasanctius uniform conducts themselves in a manner that is befitting of our school and the values we espouse.

As you are aware from ongoing communications over the past month, we are making a change to the school PE tracksuit bottoms this year. This change will be introduced on a phased basis. The new bottoms are the compulsory PE uniform for all new incoming 1^st Yrs ONLY. Current students have the choice of continuing with the green bottoms they already have OR they may opt to purchase the new grey bottoms.
