Uniform Policy & Sales

SCHOOL UNIFORM POLICY
(Extract from “School Behaviour Management Plan”)

The wearing of full school uniform is compulsory at Holy Family School. It is a condition of enrolment at the school. A separate uniform applies for summer and winter conditions. The wearing of full school uniform is a great way for students to develop self pride. It is also a means by which students can honour their school. We encourage the wearing of the school’s metal badge during school hours. Sports polo shirts, sloppy joes, hats, sports shorts, wind jackets, trackpants, ties, metal badges are available from the school office. All other items are available in shops in Bathurst.

GIRLS SCHOOL UNIFORM (Items in blue are only available at the School Office / Items in black are only available at other retail outlets)

Notes:

• Ankle length socks are preferred for regular and sports uniforms.
• Senior students who have represented the Diocese of Bathurst or NSW CPS Polding Catholic Schools, are permitted to wear their representative sports polo shirt on the school's sports day. This is an approved variation to school uniform.
• Year 6 students are permitted to wear the Year 6 graduation rugby polo top as part of their sports uniform on sports day. This is an approved variation to school uniform.

WHS (Work Health & Safety):

• As a WHS matter, and due to possible injury to self or others during sport and at play times, the school requests minimal wearing of jewellery at school. We request that items that present a safety risk not be worn to school. School staff may request removal of items that present a safety risk.
• Religious medals or small crucifix may be worn on a chain.
• Medical bracelets are permitted at school.
• Bangles, anklets, wrist bands, finger rings, foot bands or necklaces can present safety risks & should not be worn at school.
• Earrings should be sleeper studs only – safest option.
• Make up & nail polish should not be worn to school.
• The school reserves the right to request removal of non-compliant jewellery.
• School authorities have the final say as to the appropriateness of student presentation at school.

Parents accept this policy and these conditions when they sign the Enrolment Agreement at the school.
