Because the St. Francis Xavier School Community values its identity, student dress standards should promote a positive image of the school within the community and encourage students to uphold and enhance that image. It is by, and through, the maintenance of dress standards that the school community can express a sense of belonging for its students.
The Uniform Shop is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 8:15 - 10:45 am and Thursdays from 1:00 pm - 3:45 pm.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES
1. Student dress standards will: -
* be sensitive to the maturity of students, gender, disability, religious and cultural beliefs and socio-economic circumstances
* maximise access to, and participation in, all educational experiences for both male and female students
* ensure health and safety according to relevant legislation and policy
* minimise harassment attributed to, and accentuated by, dress
2. Approaches which encourage and reward students for upholding dress standards are worthwhile, and these should reflect the broader school philosophy, especially aspects which relate to student welfare.
3. All members of the school community have responsibility for ensuring that dress standards are maintained.

CHANGES TO UNIFORM ITEMS
Given the cost and energy expended in establishing the current uniforms, and, with reference to current contractual arrangements, changes will only be considered where the following procedures are followed:
- The proposed changes are specified and reasons are clearly justified and addressed in writing to the P & F Executive.
- The proposed changes are discussed at P & F level.
- Where 75% support for the changes is established at P & F level, the P & F Executive will be charged with the responsibility to investigate issues such as cost, practicality, availability and adherence to the general principles etc.
- The P & F Executive will then conduct a survey amongst parents and make a recommendation based on its findings to the Leadership Team, which will make the final decision.
CHILDREN’S PROPERTY
All children’s property (clothes, books, bags etc.) must be marked with the child’s name (clearly visible). This will assist in the returning of lost property. Parents are asked to co-operate with staff by checking on name tags in garments and returning any item of clothing belonging to others.
Each child should be responsible for his/her personal property.
LOST PROPERTY
All lost property is kept in the office.
