The school uniform reflects the Academy’s commitment to honouring the Lord through moderation, modesty, and neatness in dress. Studies confirm that uniforms, which place all students on equal footing with regard to outward appearance, help children learn to value one another for their unique gifts and personalities rather than their attire. Uniforms also foster a sense of belonging and community, and they encourage discipline and respect for the school—qualities essential to a positive learning environment.
Our original uniform supplier, who served the Academy for many years, has transitioned out of the school uniform business. We are pleased to introduce our new supplier, InSchoolwear, and look forward to many years of fruitful partnership with them.
InSchoolwear has provided important information for our school families. Please read through the material carefully and follow the instructions provided. They have worked closely with the Academy to prepare these documents and to ensure a smooth transition for the coming school year. While we have collaborated to maintain compatibility with existing uniforms, some changes were necessary due to market availability of certain colours, designs, and patterns.
