The recent amendments to the school’s uniform policy allowed for children to wear brown sweat tops including Drysdale Hawks tops as part of the informal uniform provided that they do not have other logos on them.  On formal occasions, e.g. excursions or when receiving an award in assembly, children must wear either plain brown sweat tops or a sweat shirt with the school logo.  Other tops and coats are not permitted during class time.  Children who are not wearing the correct uniform will be asked to change it.  A copy of the school’s uniform policy is available on the schools website.
