All students are required to wear a hat at recess and lunch, even when sitting in the shade. This term, any hat is fine but from January next year the students must be in the MLC School navy blue cap or bucket hat. We truly appreciate your support of sun safety. Students are also asked to ensure their make up (including no false lashes), jewellery and hair adhere to the School uniform code. This can be found in the student diary or the parent handbook. Please also ensure your daughter\u2019s school tunic is regulation length, many of them have grown taller over the winter months!<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div class=\"Paragraph SCXW118067294 BCX8\">After the success of last year&#8217;s St Patrick College\u2019s dance, we have been invited back to attend the Year 8 dance.
