CASUAL UNIFORM POLICY

Casual Uniform is an informal uniform, which is worn when going on excursions or when attending certain functions at school such as our annual swimming gala.

Learners may only wear casual uniform when prior permission is granted.

No learner is compelled to wear the casual uniform. If she does not have the casual uniform she must wear her school uniform.

Casual uniform is still part of the P.G.H.S. uniform and therefore the normal hair, make-up and jewellery rules apply. No scarves, gloves or hats may be worn.

The Casual Uniform consists of:

ShirtThe navy blue golf shirt with red trimming.

Absolutely no other shirt is allowed.

Pants/SkirtJeans/¾ pants/shorts or skirts that are plain blue denim. Shorts and skirts must be no shorter than the formal school skirt.

JerseyONLY the school jersey may be worn with casual uniform.

ShoesBlack or brown

School shoes and white takkies are acceptable.

A learner with the incorrect casual uniform will be punished, and will also not be allowed to attend the function or excursion.

NO TRACK SUITS AT ALL
