Guidelines for Casual Days at Westminster
While students are not required to wear School uniform on Casual Days, it remains a normal School Day in all other respects. Accordingly, the way students present themselves should still reflect the values of Westminster. Clothing must be neat and comfortable, with coverage equivalent to that provided by the School uniform.
To support consistency and clarity, the following guidelines apply:
- Footwear must be safe and appropriate for School activities. Styles such as thongs, Crocs, Birkenstocks and Ugg boots are not permitted
- Jewellery must not be visible
- Hair must comply with normal School regulations
- Clothing messages and logos must be appropriate. Any offensive or unsuitable content may result in disciplinary action
These guidelines are designed to ensure that all students feel comfortable, respected and safe, while still enjoying the spirit of a Casual Day.
Westminster appreciates the support of families in upholding these expectations.
