I am cold in the mornings, which do I wear, my blazer or jumper?
Blazers must be worn to and from school during Terms 2 and 3. They must be worn as students leave the school grounds and when they arrive in the morning. Blazers are also compulsory in Homeroom and are to be worn to classes until recess time. In addition, they are compulsory at all full school assemblies.

I have Physical Education today, can I wear my College jumper instead of my tracksuit?

I am thinking of colouring my hair, what colours can I choose?
