All jewellery including ear studs must be removed for all PE and Games lessons and practical lessons such as Food & Nutrition and, during such lessons will remain the responsibility of the student. Any piercings which take place during the school holidays must be healed by the time students return to school in order that they can be removed.

No other jewellery may be worn.

Make up. Make up which may be worn by students in Year 9 or above includes clear, black or brown mascara, lip balm, concealer and natural foundation. Application must be subtle and adhere to a conservative, natural and professional look. Fake tan is not appropriate for students in school.
