Uniform

Our students are representatives of our College. We appreciate your support by ensuring the uniform is worn in the correct manner and ensure that garments are kept in good condition.

The Emmaus Christian College customised uniform and accessories are unique (excluding shoes) and is only available from the Uniform Shop, located on the South Plympton campus, behind the Canteen.

We understand that the cost of a complete College uniform is a large initial financial outlay so we have made every effort to source the lowest prices balanced with durable fabrics. We offer second-hand resale.

The College expectations are:

• Parents will ensure that students are well presented by providing correct uniform items and ensuring that students are wearing the correct uniform every day.
• The full uniform will be worn to and from school and it will be clean, neatly worn and in good repair.
• Students will take pride in their appearance and maintain high standards of personal grooming.
• Uniform items will be clearly named and students will be responsible for their belongings at all times.
• Outside of school hours, students may choose to a wear plain navy jacket or coat for extra warmth. These must be removed while attending school.
  

We recognise that children are very physically active during play times therefore, the Early Learning Centre and Junior School uniform has been designed for comfort, practicality and durability.

The Junior School Girls 'Summer' Uniform (Terms 1 & 4) allows girls the choice of either the unisex uniform or dress. The dress is only to be worn with the jumper and not with the sports style rugby top or jacket.

Junior School Shoes

Each child should own two pairs of school shoes:

1. Black leather lace-up school shoes (Junior Primary F-2 may have velcro). This does not include 'lady jane' style or sports sneakers
2. Quality sports shoes - where possible in neutral College colours including a single colour or combination of white, blue, grey, black (F-2 may have velcro straps instead of laces)

Uniform Shoe Guidelines

The ELC uniform is the same as the Foundation to Year 6 uniform except for the shoes and the additional Emmaus beanie.
Early learners may wear comfortable, sports shoes every day and are not required to purchase a black leather shoe.

PE uniform is to be worn worn on days that students have PE double lessons and Middle School Dance lessons. Students may come to and from the College in PE uniform without changing at the College on these days.

Regardless of the number of days a student is able to wear their PE uniform, all students are required to have a full set of regular College summer and winter uniforms.

There will be occasions, including sport tryouts, when changing is required during the course of a school day and students will be made aware of these occasions as directed by the Head of School.

When representing the College at an external event (i.e. an awards ceremony, inter-school competition or performance), they may be asked to wear the full uniform, as determined by the Head of School. This uniform may consist of: blazer, trousers, tie.

Health and Physical Education Lessons

As part of Health and Physical Education lessons, there are expectations that your child is to uphold for all their lessons. The College's Physical Education uniform consists of:

• Emmaus polo shirt
• Emmaus shorts (Shorts need to be correct fit and not too baggy)
• Emmaus hat
• Running shoes or cross trainers (Skate Shoes or Dunlop Volleys are not permitted as they don’t provide appropriate support for ankles or sole of their feet)
• Emmaus tracksuit on cooler days (Shorts and shirts need to be worn under the tracksuit so that it can be removed when students have warmed up)
• Sports drink bottle (water only)

Students that are injured or ill are still required to be changed, as they will be incorporated into the lessons where possible (i.e. umpiring, coaching, statistician, video recorder, etc.). A note from parents / caregivers or specialist is great appreciated outlining your child’s injuries and possible timeframe that they may be out of for practical lessons.

PE uniform is to be worn worn on days that students have PE double lessons and Middle School Dance lessons (students do not wear the PE uniform for Senior School Dance lessons and change accordingly). Students may come to and from the College in PE uniform without changing at the College on these days.
