SCHOOL UNIFORM
St. Joseph’s School has a compulsory uniform policy. Upon enrolment, parents agree that they will support the school’s requirement that full and correct uniform be worn at all times. Students not in correct uniform need to inform teachers via parental notes. Parents will be alerted to the situation if students consistently show disregard for correct uniform. The intention of the uniform at St Joseph’s is that all students will present themselves in a neat and tidy fashion at all times, thus showing pride in our school.
