New Sports and Activewear Range
New Sports and Activewear Range
We are thrilled to announce the official launch of our new sports uniform, a project that has been in development since 2020. Designed with both style and functionality in mind, this new uniform embodies our commitment to supporting every student in embracing an active, healthy lifestyle. This initiative is a result of extensive research and collaboration, led by our Executive Director, Artemis Programs Sally Bailey, who has been instrumental in shaping the design based on the needs of our students.
At the heart of our vision is the goal that every Grammarian is active every day. We want to ensure that our students not only engage in sport during their time at Melbourne Girls Grammar but also carry forward a lifelong passion for physical activity. Our new sports uniform is an important step, as it plays a critical role in how students feel about participating in physical activities. By providing a uniform that is both comfortable and flexible, we aim to eliminate any barriers that may prevent our students from being their most confident and active selves.
A key insight from our research was that feeling comfortable in a sports uniform directly impacts a student’s confidence and willingness to participate in physical activities. The new uniform has been carefully designed to offer maximum comfort and flexibility, without compromising on performance.
Made from lightweight, breathable fabrics, the items ensure freedom of movement while providing support during high-intensity activities. The option to choose different items, and mix and match what suits our students best, means there is something for everyone. The different fits are tailored to the diverse needs of our Grammarians, and we aim to boost participation rates and ensure that every Grammarian feels equipped and confident to take part in different Artemis programs or sports. Whether our Grammarians are on the court, the field, in the Fitness Hub, or engaging in recreational sports like skateboarding or sailing, this new uniform ensures they feel at ease and ready to perform at their best.
Beyond physical comfort, our new sports uniform also fosters a sense of unity and belonging. A well-designed uniform is more than just clothing—it’s a symbol of identity and pride. It brings our students together as a team, creating a strong sense of togetherness and shared purpose. This unity not only enhances performance but also strengthens the bonds of our school community, on and off the field.
The launch of this new sports uniform is more than just an upgrade to our current items—it’s a reflection of our broader vision for the school. We are deeply committed to creating an environment where physical fitness and active living are valued, encouraged and celebrated. Our goal is for every one of our graduates to leave our ‘red brick walls’ not only with academic achievements but also with a deep commitment to their mental and physical wellbeing.
We believe that the introduction of this new uniform will play a key role in achieving this vision. By removing any barriers to participation and ensuring our Grammarians feel confident and supported, we are fostering a culture that values both individual and collective success in sport. This culture will stay with our students long after they leave our ‘red brick walls’, ensuring that they remain engaged in physical activities throughout their lives.
The launch of our new sports uniform is an exciting milestone in our ongoing efforts to support our students’ physical and mental wellbeing. By prioritising comfort, confidence, and unity, we are creating an environment where every student can thrive—on the sports field and beyond. We look forward to seeing our Grammarians in their new uniforms, embracing an active lifestyle and continuing to represent our school with pride.
