Uniform
When students wear a school uniform, they feel included in our school community. Learn about our uniform and where to buy it.
Our school uniform
Students, teachers, parents and carers, as well as members of our local community helped develop our school uniform to make sure it:
- meets the requirements of occupational health and safety, anti-discrimination and equal opportunity legislation
- includes items that are affordable, comfortable and made from easy-care and easy-wear fabrics
- is appropriate for the full range of school activities
- is suitable for all body shapes.
Calare Public School students are required to wear a school uniform. Compliance with formal uniform dress regulations for excursions, special performances and school representative occasions is compulsory.
Children with pierced ears should note that our school policy is: studs only for pierced ears.
Any other form of earrings is extremely dangerous when the children are playing and children should be discouraged from wearing them.
We cannot stress strongly enough the need to have all children's belongings clearly labelled. Articles such as hats, school jumpers, lunch boxes, drink bottles, jackets and school bags must be easily identified by your child's name. Inquiries about lost property can be made at the office.
