Welcome
Welcome to The Clarendon College website. We hope this will be the next stage in developing our clear link between education and technology enhancing the colleges statement that we are a "learning community embracing technology.
Our Mission
To develop each student's academic and other abilities to the highest level of excellence of which they are capable so they achieve beyond their expectations. To prepare each student to be a compassionate and responsible member of a rapidly changing global society.
College Uniform
The wearing of full college uniform is an expression of the personal pride that students take in themselves and the college. A student represents the college when in uniform and the college’s reputation depends very much on the impression made. In deciding upon suitable clothing for The Clarendon College we have taken into account cost, availability and suitability. In Years 12/13 it is expected that students will choose clothing appropriate for their senior position in college.
- No jewellery may be worn apart from one pair of small stud earrings for pierced ears and a watch. No other facial piercing is accepted.
- Outdoor coats or jackets must be plain (no denim or ‘hoodies’)
- Cyclists are advised to wear a cycle helmet
- All clothing should be marked with the owner’s name
- We do not accept any extremes of fashion
- We expect students to look smart and tidy at all times
