Dear Families

 

Hampton Senior High School offers comprehensive course selection processes for students transitioning into Year 11.  As part of this process, current Year 10 students are invited to enrol in Year 11 (2024) at Hampton Senior High School.

 

WACE and Pathway Information Sessions 1-4

Year 10 students will complete four sessions prior to course selection interviews. During these sessions, students will learn about the requirements to achieve WACE and the pathway options available to them in Senior School. Between sessions, students will have time to reflect and independently research careers and courses that interest them.

Term 2 Uniform Reminder

A significant part of our “raising standards” focus during term 1 was the school uniform. The
majority of students have done a wonderful job wearing the Hampton dress code each day. Coming
into the colder months, we wanted to remind you of a couple of key points:

 

1. Leggings (and bike shorts) are not allowed to be worn.
2. Students can wear a plain navy or white long sleeved top underneath their Hampton polo
3. Nell Gray in Inglewood have a full selection of uniforms available
4. All pants must be navy blue
5. Plain (no logos visible) navy blue shorts, skirts, pants and jumpers purchased from Best & Less, Kmart, Big W etc are allowed to be worn.
6. Hoods are not allowed on any top
7. Students will be sent to Student Services to get changed if they are not in the correct uniform. We have purchased a significant amount of plain navy clothing that students will be required
to get changed into.
8. Students who repeatedly choose not to wear the uniform in each class will receive detention
from Week 1, Term 2.

 

Please help us to ensure your child wears the Hampton uniform to represent our school proudly in the
community.
