At NFPS we foster a sense of school pride in our students through school uniforms. These instill a sense of responsibility for their attire and allow students to focus on what matters – academics and character building. We encourage your child’s individuality to shine through their actions, behaviours, and thoughts.

Shoes
Students require two pairs of shoes:
– Solid black school shoes – these may not be runners, sandals, crocs, or boots. The heel may not exceed 3 cm and shoes may not exceed ankle height.
– Runners with non-marking soles – these must be clean and may not exceed ankle height. It is imperative that they are securely fastened and have sufficient arch support, therefore, skate-style shoes are not appropriate. It is at the discretion of the physical education teacher to request that a different pair of gym shoes be brought to school if the original pair is deemed unsafe. Shoes labeled as cross trainers are generally acceptable.
Hemming Guidelines
– Skirts may be hemmed no shorter than 10 cm from the floor as the student kneels;
– Skirts may not be rolled at the waistband;
– Pants must be hemmed so that they do not touch the floor when the student stands in school shoes; and
– Pants may not be rolled up or cut off.
Makeup and Jewelry
– One watch, one ring, and one earring per ear (stud or small hoop) may be worn;
– Students may wear very pale nail polish and one necklace;
– No makeup is permitted up to and including grade 8; and
– Makeup must be kept neutral, modest, and minimal in grades 9 to 12 (acceptable makeup includes pale, neutral eyeshadow, mascara, and lip gloss).
