Uniform

When students wear a school uniform, they feel included in our school community. Learn about our uniform and where to buy it.

Our school uniform

The Balmain school uniform is designed to promote a sense of pride, unity, and belonging among students. It features comfortable, practical, and weather-appropriate clothing that reflects the school’s colours and identity. The uniform policy ensures all students present themselves in a neat and respectful manner, fostering a positive and inclusive school environment.

Shoes for safety

At school, our students doing Science and TAS subjects learn in laboratories, workshops and kitchen environments. These learning spaces are not like a regular classroom. We have chemicals, tools, equipment and materials in these spaces and we use these spaces for both theoretical and practical based activities.

Footwear is an important safety item. Good soles provide a sound grip on the floor, preventing accidents such as slips, trips and falls from occurring. Footwear can also protect feet from damage caused by accidents such as falling objects or chemical spillages.

Department of Education WHS policy requires all students to wear appropriate footwear in all laboratories and workshops and when conducting practical activities in the school kitchens.

Acceptable shoes have the following characteristics:

• Fully enclosed with a black leather upper
• Sturdy
• Solid rubber non-slip sole
