Uniform
We are very proud to be working in partnership with State Schools’ Relief as our uniform suppliers. You can purchase our uniform online through State Schools’ Relief. This wonderful organisation is a not for profit that supports disadvantaged students across Victoria. Purchasing from them means another child in Victoria who is experiencing hardship is able to get support with various items for school.
