To enable a smooth transition from summer to winter uniform (worn in Terms 2 and 3), the Uniform Shop will have the winter uniform available from Week 8, Monday 15 March.

Please note if the weather is still warm during the first two weeks of Term 2, girls may wear their full summer uniform, including the white hat.

Due to COVID-19, there may be some delays with our winter skirts and other stock provided by offshore manufacturers, and in those cases, we will do our best to let you know what products you may experience a delay in purchasing.

New families will have already purchased most of their uniform, so an appointment is not necessary. We welcome you to pop into the shop when it’s convenient during regular opening hours.

Flexischools

If you find it difficult to get to the Uniform Shop with your daughter, remember most items are available on the Flexischools Website where purchases can be collected from the Uniform shop during opening hours.

Please note, blazers are not offered online, so please bring your daughter to the Uniform shop for a fitting of this item.

Year 3 Uniform

Pinafore: In general, girls in Year 3 wear the pinafore, Peter Pan blouse and tab tie until the end of Term 3. However, if they outgrow their pinafore or need to pass it down to a younger sister, they may wear the skirt, over blouse (different from Peter Pan blouse worn with the pinafore) and brown cross over tie. The skirt and over blouse is worn from Years 4 to 12.

Blazer: All girls will need a Blazer from Year 3. The blazer must be worn for excursions, formal occasions and every day to and from school with the winter uniform.

Cable Jumper - Years 7 to 12

Just a reminder that Year 7 students should now be wearing the Middle and Senior School Cable Jumper. Stock is readily available.

Second Hand Uniform

The Uniform Shop is now accepting winter uniforms for second hand sale.

We will be accepting the summer uniform again from Week 5 in Term 3.

The Second Hand Form and Conditions of Sale can be found on the Wilderness Parent Portal.

When bringing in a second hand uniform, please make sure that your uniform has been freshly washed and blazers, winter skirts, and pinafores are dry cleaned.

If your daughter has received braids or a pocket award, please remove the braids and the pocket before bringing it to the shop for sale. The shop has replacement pockets for the next owner to purchase for second hand blazers.

Pocket Embroidery

Due by 9.00am, Thursday 1 April (last week of term)

Pocket embroidery is done in batches over the year at no charge.

Girls are asked to print off their award email and bring it with their named blazer to the Uniform Shop in the last week of Term 1. All blazers must be received before 9.00am Thursday 1 April.

Should your daughter miss this deadline, the schedule for 2021 can be found on the Parent Portal.

Please empty pockets and remove all badges from blazers before being brought in. Please also note, we won’t accept any blazers without the printed award email.

Braids Application

Braids application happens at a different location to pocket embroidery. If you don’t already have a preferred dressmaker, Jenny Trotta is a professional dressmaker and calls in at the Uniform Shop.

For further details regarding her service, or instructions for home application, please view the Uniform Shop information on the Parent Portal.
