The St. John the Apostle uniform was formulated by a sub-committee of parents who worked on behalf of the Steering Committee to devise a uniform based on the following criteria:
- Is it unique to the school?
- Is it affordable for the community so it is fair to enforce?
- Is it comparable in price to the other Parish schools?
- Is it warm and well suited to outdoor activites?
- Is it easy to keep clean?
- Is it as fade resistant as possible?
- Is it symbolic of St. John the Apostle and his story?
The uniform consists of a summer and winter uniform. The summer uniform is worn over Terms 1 and 4, The winter uniform is worn during terms 2 and 3. A transition period between the uniforms is implemented.
The school also has a sports uniform. This will be worn twice in the week to allow rescheduling of physical education lessons if weather conditions are unfavourable of the first day.
