Leadership Badge Ceremony Parents, family members and friends of our Year 6 leaders are invited to our Annual Leadership Badge Presentation Ceremony. This assembly will be held on Thursday 20 February at 12:45 in our school hall. Our SRC and Year 6 student leaders will undertake their leadership path and be presented with their badges. Students are reminded to come in full school uniform including black shoes for the ceremony. Uniforms Ross Hill students and staff are very proud of our school uniform and students are expected to be in full school uniform every day. Our uniform unites us and creates equality and pride in our school and our achievements. Our Ross Hill hat is part of the school uniform. If you need a new school hat they are available from the school P&C clothing shop at the canteen at a very reasonable price. Students are reminded that they need their school hat everywhere even during winter and especially if they are representing their school.
