Uniform and Equipment
It is our policy that all students wear the college uniform when attending college, representing the college, or when participating in a college organised event outside normal college hours. Wearing uniform fosters a sense of community and belonging, promotes a sense of pride in the college and makes students feel equal to their peers in terms of appearance.
