Each learner is required to wear the full College uniform from Grade 1.  Pre-Primary learners may wear the school track suit and sporting attire.  Personal presentation is an aspect of excellence. Learners are readily identifiable by their uniform and parents must support the College by ensuring that the uniform is worn with care and pride at all times.  More information regarding the uniforms is available in the Parklands Directory, which is provided to the learners each year.  New and used school uniforms are available from:
