College Uniform

St Francis Catholic College is a Diocesan K-12 Catholic School in the Edmund Rice tradition in the Parish of Mary, Mother of the Church, Macquarie Fields at Edmondson Park. The College motto encourages all community members to grow and develop ‘open minds and open hearts’ by opening their minds to enriching new learning experiences and through opening their hearts by being faith-filled people of integrity, courage, compassion, inclusion and justice.

PURPOSE

Wearing the school uniform assists in providing an inclusive community at St Francis Catholic College. It serves as a great leveller and reduces competition and focus on the way we look. It also helps to reduce bullying and ensure that everyone who attends St Francis Catholic College feels like they belong. When the uniform is worn well, and members of the public see students taking pride in their appearance and their school identity, it can enhance the reputation of the College in the community, encouraging others to join our College.

Wearing the College uniform is compulsory for all students attending St Francis Catholic College. Students are expected to set the highest possible standard of dress at all times. They should take pride in their appearance and be pleasant and courteous. Students are expected to be good ambassadors for the College. They should recognise that whilst they wear the College uniform, they represent the College, and therefore, uniform standards should be maintained outside of regular College hours until the full uniform is removed.

The Policy below has been developed to ensure that students, parents/carers and teachers are aware of their expectations in relation to the wearing of the College uniform.
