Uniform
The majority of students have appropriate hairstyles and are wearing the correct uniform. Thank you! There are more than a few, however, that do not fit expectations and policy. The uniform policy states: Smart Play Uniform - Students who wear the Smart Play uniform must wear it according to this policy, including shoes.
Compulsory items: SPC Polo Shirt, Short or Long Sleeved (with logo), SPC Track pants or shorts or skort, Softshell jacket (with logo), School socks (navy with two yellow stripes), School Hat (with logo). This means these items must be worn. If your child is wearing trousers, they are still expected to wear the Smart Play socks.
If hair reaches the collar (boys and girls), it must be tidily pulled back. Ribbons, bows, ties must be in school colours (navy, gold). Hair colour must be natural, cut neatly and washed regularly. Hair must be off the face. The following hairstyles are not permitted - variations of mohican style, mullets (short or long), shaved hair with logos/designs and colours, distinct differences in length, any type of extreme style.
Make-up, including nail polish, is not to be worn. The only jewellery permitted to be worn to school includes a watch and/or one plain stud or sleeper per ear, in the lobe only. No other piercings permitted. Earrings should be plain silver or gold studs or sleepers, no dangly earrings, diamond/gem studs or black discs. Small religious symbols in gold or silver on a necklace. Any culturally significant jewellery should be discreet and be worn with the permission of the Principal.
All students are required to wear a school hat for all outside activities in Terms 1 and 4. Smart Watches with phone, photo or recording capabilities are not to be worn. There are students in some classes with shaved sides distinctly different to the length of the tops and/or backs and others that replicate a short mohican style or mullet.
A copy of the current policy was sent out via SeeSaw earlier this week.
