MINNAMURRA PUBLIC SCHOOL P&C UNIFORM ORDER POLICY

There are two major uniform orders during the year in Term 1 and Term 3. Orders can be done online via www.flexischools.com.au. Please ensure you select the 'Major Uniform Order' option. Delivery will be approximately mid Term 2 and mid Term 4.

The 'Major Uniform Order' option will be available three weeks prior to the order dates. Notification of the dates will be in the schools’ fortnightly newsletter.

Payment must be made at the time of submitting the order. Payment options are:
VISA, Mastercard, Paypal and Bank Transfer.

NOTE: Bank transfer requires additional time for the money to be transferred into the account, so please allow plenty of time before cut-off dates.

The uniform shop is located in the office block and is open on Thursday mornings from 8.30am to 9.00am. The uniform shop holds limited stock for trying on purposes only, new families arriving throughout the year and emergency items. (See note below for further information).

Thursday morning orders can be ordered online via Flexischools. There is the option of having the items delivered to the classroom or picked up from the uniform shop on Thursday mornings.

The Uniform Shop will NO LONGER ACCEPT CASH. Any orders placed at the shop on a Thursday morning will be done via Flexischools and must be via VISA or Mastercard. (For the other payment options mentioned above, please create your Flexischools login and make payment directly).

It is extremely important that you order carefully, as uniforms cannot be refunded. Uniforms will only be exchanged if they are in their original packaging with tags still attached and you present your receipt. If you are unsure of the size, please come to the shop to try the uniforms on. If it is impossible for you to come to the shop on Thursday mornings due to work commitments etc. please phone Tracey Kalajzich on 0429 365 403 to organise an alternate time.

One hundred percent (100%) of our students wear school uniform in numerous combinations. The school uniform is:

Every day:

·        Bottle green wide-brimmed hat with school emblem

Every day except sports day:

·        Gold polo shirt with school emblem

·        Bottle green shorts, skorts, skirt or pants

·        Green and gold check dress

·        Bottle green polar fleece jumper / jacket or cotton hoodie with school emblem

·        Bottle green waterproof polar fleece lined jacket

·        Black shoes and white socks (shoes must be mostly black)

Sports day:

·        Bottle green shirt with yellow stripe

·        Bottle green shorts with yellow stripe

·        Bottle green skort

·        Sports shoes of any colour


PLEASE LABEL ALL UNIFORM ITEMS CLEARLY

Emergency Thursday morning orders

Unfortunately, the uniform shop does not have the space to hold enough stock for the entire school to cater for ad-hoc ordering throughout the year.

To keep the costs of the uniforms down, it is also important that we order the stock in bulk. These are the reasons we have two major uniform orders a year.

Please assist us with this process and try to limit your purchases to the major uniform orders only.

Volunteers

To run successfully the uniform shop relies on its regular volunteers. We are very grateful for these volunteers who ensure the uniform shop is able to open each week.

A lot of schools have to outsource their uniform shops and we are very thankful that we don't need to do this. This means that all profits from the sale of uniforms go straight back into the school for resources for the children.

If you are interested in volunteering there are a number of different opportunities:

·         Volunteer in the shop Thursday mornings 8:30am – 9:00am (couple of times a term)

·         Pack the major uniform orders (twice a year)

·         Assist with the Kindy Try-On days (a few days in October)

·         Stocktake

·         Order uniforms with our suppliers

·         Maintain the Flexischools website (adding photos, updating information)

·         Uniform shop coordinator (coordinate all of the above)

If you are interested in volunteering please contact Tracey Kalajzich on 0429 365 403 for more details.
