Uniform

At Marsden Road Public School, our uniform is more than just what we wear each day – it shows who we are as a school. Wearing the uniform helps everyone feel a sense of belonging and pride, while also keeping us safe and easily recognised in the community. It represents our values of equity, respect, unity, and school spirit, reminding us that we are all part of one team.

Modesty Dressing and Safety

For relevant students, hijabs must be grey or bottle green. Hijabs are to be worn as neatly, fastened and secured with appropriate pin/s so that no extended fabric is hanging vertically at the front or the back of the body. Students should avoid pinning their hijabs to their sleeves or to the back of their jumpers and collars as an additional safety measure. We recommend the two-piece Amira Hijab.
