Uniform

Millthorpe Public School Uniform

When students wear a school uniform, they feel included in our school community.

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.

Learn more about the NSW Department of Education’s School Uniform Policy.

Our uniform helps to create an identity for our students within our community, develop a sense of belonging and promote positive perceptions of our school in the broader community. We expect all of our students to wear school uniform at all times.

The school, with the assistance of P&C volunteers, operates a free clothing pool that provides high-quality, second-hand clothing to our students. Contact the office for more details.

Formal school wear is required for special occasions such as school photos, ANZAC Day march and other school representative events as instructed. Unless otherwise advised, sports uniform is to be worn to school on your child's designated sport day (once a week).
