Wesley College

Colin and Brooklyn are already off to college. Apparently you can start college at age 5 in Australia. Here they are in their sport uniforms which are worn on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays: polos, capris (shorts), and socks. The sport uniform also includes a suncap, fleece (sweat) pants and shirt. They can also wear trainers (athletic shoes). The capris are really very short and roomy.

The kids in their summer uniforms. These include: short sleeved grandpa shirt(it is really called that), grey shorts, grey socks, school shoes, summer dress, cream socks, and of course their backpacks. I'm not too sure what a zoot suit or a basketball singlet looks like, but we can buy them if we want! There are also winter uniforms, so look for a post when it becomes winter here and summer up north.

Bella and Jared felt left out and so they decided to pose for a picture in their school clothes. Can you tell who felt cold this morning? Obviously not the kids.

Wow, I can't believe how much your kids have grown. What an exciting adventure for all of you. Are the kids enjoying it? They all look happy as can be. They even look cute in their uniforms.

I would love to be able to use uniforms for my kids. They are actually really cute. I wonder if there are any "language barriers" for your kids when they go to school. Even as you were describing the uniforms, I needed a translator!
