Uniform Proposal Update

Thank you to all who responded to the proposal. From the 34 responses that we received, just over half of you liked the idea and the other almost 46% did not. Some of the comments that argued against the suggestion were that three shirt colours would be too much; that all navy would not look good and they would fade; also that the white shirts were smart. Those for the proposal were mostly relieved at not having to fight white shirt stains and some suggested bleaching was not good for the environment. Based on this response this proposal will not be taken further.

However, we do have a second proposal. This proposal considers some of the concerns about too many different shirts as well as the concerns about all blue. The proposal and the call for comments is detailed on the next page but the school wishes to make it clear that were this proposal to be developed and instigated, a plan of phasing in the changes would take place. The school currently has over $5,000 of existing stock. In the call for comments survey we would welcome your ideas as to how to phase this in. See newsletter for information.
