As we enter week five of school, we are starting to see some students relax a little with their uniform choices. In the coming two weeks we are going to be focussing on ensuring students are wearing the current ISB uniform with the week ahead focussing on reminding and allowing students a chance to correct their uniform choice. If students are not wearing the correct uniform in the following week we will be asking students to purchase the correct uniform from the bookstore. Our dress code policy can be found in the online student handbook under ‘Uniform and Dress Code’.
For a quick summary of the key points for our uniform, please note the following:
- School pants can be purchased from the bookstore, but we do allow non-bookstore pants, so long as they are in the same design limitations. Pants must be appropriate length (defined as 1/3 of the hip to knee). Tighter pants are allowed however, spandex and ‘branded’ sports pants are not allowed.
- Hoodies and sweaters must be purchased from the Booster Hut. All other team hoodies are not to be worn on Monday to Thursday.
- Every Friday students will have a specific focused alternative dress day in which they will be able to wear ISB Team-wear, class shirts, ISB club wear or themed dress as per the planned schedule for that week. Our Student Council will be sharing these dress days with students next week.
- Footwear should be comfortable, practical and safe. Open toe shoes are not allowed such as slippers and flip flop sandals.
Our hope is that we are able to spend less time on conversations surrounding uniform and more time on supporting each child’s progress in High School. We appreciate your help in ensuring that your student(s) only wear dress code conforming clothing to the school uniform policy.
