Our Junior (Y0-6) and Seniors (Y7-8) have slightly different uniforms, with the junior school wearing shirts with a blue stripe and our seniors in a red stripe. Students may wear either the polo or sports shirt for a normal school day and have the choice of cargo or sports shorts, cargo pants or skorts. A navy blue or black thermal of long-sleeved under is permitted beneath the shirt, and socks and tights are also allowed in navy blue or black.

Footwear must be plain black, flat-heeled school shoes or sandals.  Footwear must be worn to and from school. Boots, jandals, ballerina shoes, crocs and high heels are not permitted.

HDS ‘bucket’ sun hats are compulsory in Term 1 and from Labour Weekend (October) in Term 4. Hats and winter beanies can be purchased via The School Uniform Company and the School Office.
