Uniform

The uniform (as stated in the diary) is to be worn correctly with the shirt tucked in, and no extra obvious garments that detract from the expected school image.  Jewellery, other than watches, is not permitted (such as earrings, studs, friendship bands).

N.B.  Please note that a “combination” of the school and sports uniforms is not acceptable.

Caps

 

The College strongly urges all students to wear a cap whilst participating in outdoor activities.  The only cap students are to wear is the official De La Salle cap which can be purchased from the Dobsons Uniform Shop on the Tiverton Campus.

All members of staff have been asked to insist on correct uniform and neatness.  This also covers such aspects as cleanliness, hair, shoes and state of clothing.  We believe that both the individual and the College community gain by attention to the standard of general appearance.

A student’s hair is expected to be the natural colour, above the collar and not extreme in its style by comparison to reasonable expectations of the day.  The College reserves the right to either tell a student to have his hair cut or to send home those students who do not comply.
