Uniform - Brisbane Adventist College

Brisbane Adventist College has a formal Prep to Year 12 uniform as well as a Physical Education uniform for P.E classes and sport. There are specialised uniforms supplied by the College for sports teams, and a Year 12 'jersey' which is a privilege reserved for the final year of school.

BAC Students are expected to maintain a high standard of tidiness in their personal appearance. It is essential that our school uniform be worn in a neat and tidy manner at all times.

Brisbane Adventist College students must wear the correct school uniform every school day and as required at specific school functions. All items, with the exception of shoes, gloves, belts and hair ribbons must be purchased from our uniform shop.

Please note: With the introduction of our new formal uniform in 2011, our transitional phase will end in December, 2012. All students will be expected to wear the new uniform at the beginning of 2013.
