School Uniforms
The school uniform was chosen by the College Council after a consultative process with the student body. It has been described as conservative and distinctive, and originally included the option of a blazer, but this was not taken up by the vast majority. During summer months, in terms 1 and 4, girls wear a summer dress, grey socks, and black shoes, with a purple college jumper. Boys also wear grey socks and black shoes, and the purple college jumper, in combination with grey trousers or shorts and a white shirt. For winter dress, in terms 2 and 3, girls wear the white college shirt and either a grey skirt or trousers with a college tie. Boys are permitted to wear trousers or shorts during winter, and must also wear a tie.
The college enforces its uniform policy rigorously. As the first uniform policy for McClelland College was white socks, they then changed it to grey socks and enforce this rule strongly.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or uniforms:
“I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.”
—Henry David David (1817–1862)
“I place these numbed wrists to the pane
watching white uniforms whisk over
him in the tube-kept
prison
fear what they will do in experiment”
—Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
