The school uniform was reviewed in 2004, determined by the school community and decided that uniform at Baulkham Hills High School is mandatory. It must be worn at all times. STUDENTS MUST CARRY A DATED NOTE FROM THEIR PARENT, COUNTER-SIGNED BY THE DEPUTY PRINCIPAL, IF OUT OF SCHOOL UNIFORM.The community at large tends to judge a school by its dress standards; hence it is necessary to be most strict in this area. Uniforms also make it much easier for staff to identify any person on school premises who should not have access to students.

While common sense dictates that it is not always possible, as a general rule students are expected to change back to full school uniform after Sport or Physical Education lessons and permission must be obtained to deviate from this policy. On Wednesdays, sport day, students may travel to and from school in the sports uniform. The sport’s uniform is currently under review and will be phased in over a reasonable period of time. C.H.S. sporting jackets may only be worn at sport on Wednesdays. At other times, students are encouraged to wear a school tie and also a Baulkham Hills High School cap.

A Guide to Backpacks

High school students generally and Baulkham Hills students in particular, frequently carry heavy loads when they travel to and from school. When selecting a backpack, parents should bear the following in mind.

• When the student is seated the pack should not extend above the shoulders.
• A properly designed pack has shoulder straps that are broad, well padded and adjustable.
• Straps should be attached to the top of the pack at separate points.
• It is important to have a strap that can fasten around the waist to keep the load in place when walking, running or cycling
• Separate compartments inside the pack allow for the heavier items to be packed closest to the body.
• The pack should be padded where it touches the back and made of firm material to help prevent the load sagging.

When packing the bag, heavy items should be placed closest to the body, with lighter, softer items further out. When loaded, the bag shouldn’t sag or pull backwards. The shoulder strap should be properly adjusted.

Students in Years 7 and 8 also have access to lockers. Intelligent use of lockers will lessen the burden they carry around.
