 Dress Code
Our School's Governing Council has determined that the wearing of clothing
described in the following school policy is a requirement for all students.
It is expected that all children will wear the Glenelg School colours of navy
blue and gold.
The
School's dress code aims to give students a sense of pride in their school.
The wearing of the school colours is also a safety issue as it is easy to
recognise Glenelg School students in the yard, on excursions or when
representing the school.
