Dear Parents, Carers and Guardians, 

This term students will be back wearing their summer uniform. We allow a two week change over period to allow families to catch up on restocking and sourcing the current uniforms; as most children will have outgrown their summer uniforms from Term 1. 

We would like to take this opportunity to remind all families about our school uniform policy. At St Michael’s, we take pride in our presentation and the way in which we wear our uniform. We ask that all parents help support us by encouraging your child to wear the correct uniform in the right way. 

To help students feel comfortable in their learning and play environments, we ask that summer dresses are of an appropriate length. We also ask that the black sports shorts are of an appropriate length and do not have any logos on them. Black running shorts (often with slits up the side) and bike shorts are not appropriate for school. 

Finally, students are required to wear black school shoes or black sneakers on days they wear their summer and winter uniform. Other sneakers must only be worn on days where students are wearing their sports uniform. Converse high tops are not appropriate shoes for school and should be saved for special casual clothes days. 

We understand that some families may still be sourcing or purchasing uniforms, and recognise that this may take some time. Please reach out to the school office if you are experiencing difficulties with uniforms as there may be some in stock in our second hand uniform store. 

As per our Sun Smart Policy, students and staff are required to wear a hat when outside at all times. Hats can be purchased from the school office if you require a replacement. 

A full version of the school’s uniform policy is available on our school website. 

Foundation to Year 1/2 Water Safety Program - change of date 

Due to GRAC availability, we have had to change the dates for the Foundation to Year 1/2 Swimming program. The program will be held from Monday 10th November to Thursday 13th November (inclusive) and the following week from Monday 17th November to Thursday 20th November (inclusive). This change is reflected in the school calendar. 

Assembly arrangements 

Due to the hall now being used as a 5/6 classroom, we can no longer use it for assemblies. The Leadership team are considering some options and this will be communicated with all families as soon as a decision has been made. Until then, all awards will be given out in classrooms. 

Important dates: 

15th October - Casual Clothes Day 

15th October - Regional Athletics 

17th October- Year 1/2 Mass at 9:30am

17th October - Trivia Night
