. Last year, following feedback from students and families a process commenced to explore options to update our pieces. This year our Student Representative Council have been instrumental in leading this process. They have been supported in their work by a small group of staff and a representative of our Stewardship Council who is also a parent of the College. The updates to the uniform were endorsed by the Stewardship Council of the College at their last meeting in September.
In reviewing the uniform pieces, we endeavoured to address:
- Warmth
- Appropriateness of fit
- Water resistance
- Appropriateness of fabric for physical activity
- Designs to support physical activity and movement
We also considered the commitment of our uniform supplier to ethical supply chains and manufacturing of our uniform pieces. Maintaining similar price points was also considered.
A graphic of the new pieces is included below. A summary of the changes is listed for your information. Families will notice there are minimal colour changes other than the introduction of some new pieces. This will assist in maintaining a connection to current pieces as we transition into the new uniform.
