Uniform Advice

Sports/PE Uniform

Boys will wear their sports uniform (Navy Blue polos) each day.

Prep sun hat - All boys will need a Prep sun hat for play during school time.

Prep School Bag and Library Bag - don't forget you'll also need these!

Sports shoes need to be predominately white, and you will need to purchase white sports socks.

Optional - new Prep sports socks (white) from Midford - these are optional for Early Entry. Note - there has been a delay with the new socks, Prep will advise when these are available to order. Please note, the socks on the Midford website are NOT the new school socks.

Cooler months - you may like to purchase the Prep tracksuit or fleece jumper. Note - tracksuit pants sizes run very large - so you have the option of purchasing navy blue tracksuit pants from Kmart/Big W. You can also wear a plain white or navy long sleeve under the navy polo.

Midford - purchase new uniforms/accessories via link here.

Second Hand Uniform shop - open Tuesdays 7.45-8.15am - located next to the Early Entry building behind the basketball courts.

For more advice refer to the P&F uniform page here.
