School Uniform

Representing our school in the best way

The School uniform is the most visible symbol of identity for students at Playford College. It is expected that all students take pride in their appearance and ensure their uniform is well-fitted, clean, neat and worn in a dignified and respectful manner during the school day, and while travelling to and from the School.

The uniform can only be purchased at Lowes, Shop 66 in the Elizabeth Shopping Centre.

Following are details of the correct uniform options for winter (Terms 2 and 3), summer (Terms 1 and 4) and PE (all year).

There may be occasions as designated by the School, (for example School excursions or photos) when parents will be provided with notification for the full formal uniform to be worn. Occasionally, you will also receive notification of days when the students are exempt from wearing the School uniform (for example, casual days and school camps). On these occasions it is still expected that the students be neat and take pride in their appearance.

Students must wear hats when they are outside from 1 September to 1 May. Students are required to wear the official Playford College hats. No other hats or caps are to be worn with the School uniform.

All bags are specifically manufactured to support the students’ backs and to meet the unique and challenging demands of daily school use.
