The wearing of identifiable uniform and colours represents an important child protection requirement since we share our grounds with Tuncurry Campus and the TAFE. Our legal obligation to protect all users of the campus site will override any objection to the wearing of uniform.
All senior students are expected to wear senior dress code colours at school and to school excursions. Consistent or serious breaches of the Dress Code may see students asked to return home to change into the required clothing.
Students are expected to maintain a high standard of personal hygiene and neatness. Clothing and accessories should be clean, safe, modest and in reasonable condition.
Items of uniform should conform to the following guidelines;
Girls:
- Plain navy skirt, mid length navy shorts, or navy slacks to be worn all year.
- White knit shirt or button up shirt with school or college emblem.
- Red sweater top, with V neck and school or college emblem.
- Black enclosed shoes with leather uppers and short white socks.
Boys:
- Grey dress trousers or shorts.
- White knit shirt or button up shirt with school or college emblem.
- Red sweater top, with V neck and school or college emblem.
- Black enclosed shoes with leather uppers and short white socks.

FOOTWEAR POLICY
The wearing of enclosed shoes which also enclose and support the heel is a legal issue subject to Occupational Heath and Safety Guidelines at the Great Lakes College Senior Campus.
Thongs, sandals, clog style and scuff style footwear are not permitted on the site because they represent a foreseeable risk of injury given the nature of the site.
Legal requirements for appropriate footwear will override any objection students may have. A student wearing inappropriate footwear will be required to return home to obtain enclosed footwear before coming back onto the site.
