Dress Code
Students who enrol at St. Peter do so with the full awareness of the uniform requirements. When a student chooses St. Peter, he/she agrees to abide by the established dress code. Our school uniform creates a distinct school identity. By respecting the dress code, students uphold this goal.
Only uniform items purchased from R.J. McCarthy Ltd. or its agent are allowed at St. Peter. Students will be disciplined if their uniform items do not comply with this standard.
