Purchasing uniforms
All St Columba’s school uniform items can be purchased from the St Columba’s Uniform Shop which is located upstairs in the Columba Wing (near the 5/6 Learning Comunity).  The uniform shop is open on Tuesday mornings from 8:30am - 9:00am and Thursday afternoons from 3:00pm -3:30-pm.  If you prefer, you can leave an order at the office and it will be filled the next time the shop is open and can be collected from the office.  For an order form you can download from the St Columba’s website or collect from the office.
Second hand uniforms are also available for sale and purchase through the shop.

School uniform is a parental responsibility
If a student is not wearing correct uniform a written note explaining the reason must be given to the child’s teacher or the school office.
 
Don’t forget to label!
All removable clothing, lunchboxes, containers, bags and water bottles must be clearly marked with your child's name.  Iron-on labels, permanent marker and laundry pens are best. A few minutes spent in marking your child's belongings will save worry and expense.

St Columba’s is a Sun Smart School
Hats are compulsory for all children to wear when the UV is estimated to be higher than 3 all year round. Children who do not have their school hat, will be directed to play under shelter. 
Teachers are not permitted to apply sunscreen for legal reasons. Sunscreen with a SPF 30+ will be provided by the school.  Children with allergies are asked to provide their own sunscreen. 

Lost property
Did your child come home without a sports jumper, woollen jumper, lunchbox, socks? If your child has lost any belongings, please check the Lost Property Box located near the school office. There are also Lost Property boxes in all Learning Communities.

Personal Belongings
Occasionally children bring expensive items to school. These can be easily damaged, lost or stolen. We advise children NOT to bring these items to school.  Private property brought to school by students is not insured.  The school does not accept responsibility for any loss.
