Uniform
All students are expected to wear the school's uniform correctly. The appearance of students is an important factor in maintaining and enhancing the school's excellent reputation, which is of benefit to all its members. Some restrictions on how students may appear and what may be worn are necessary for health, safety and security reasons. Uniform items bearing the school logo are available from Lyndale Sports. To avoid any ambiguity, we have stipulated the colour, manufacturers and styles which will be permitted to be worn. Items without a logo may be sourced from any stockist.
