One of those changes includes a new uniform.
The Area News was invited for a sneak-peak preview of the fashionable yet practical designs, and can now reveal them to the public.
Executive Principal Peter King has been keeping the designs on display within the school, and so far they have been met with a very positive response from the students.

The styles, colours, and options are quite refreshing compared to other schools, which may have more limited designs, for instance.
One of the more surprising options available for students is the ‘skort’ – a combination of a skirt and shorts, which a number of parents and students have requested.
“It’s a comfortable and sensible option for girls,” Mr King said.
“The new uniform that’s coming to the Murrumbidgee Regional High School is exciting, and it’s certainly flexible, and has as many options for the parents and for the students, to cater for them and make them more comfortable at school.”
When asked how parents and staff have responded to the prototypes, Mr King said:
“It’s all very positive – our uniform was designed by staff, students, and parents, who worked together.”
“And that’s a nice way for a uniform to come together.”
The new uniform will be available at the start of term four – in the middle of October.
