Montcrest Uniform Guidelines

Montcrest School’s uniform philosophy is grounded in a “dress for your day” approach. Our uniform  is categorized by Formal, Gym, and Everyday items and is tailored to each division. In addition to these, we have optional Spirit wear that can be worn on Spirit Days or at recess.

Uniform Category When to Wear
Formal Uniform On Special days e.g. Remembrance Day, Guest speaker events and when representing Montcrest at events or field trips (as appropriate). Advance notice of Formal Uniform days will be shared with families.
Gym Uniform On Gym class days or athletic team games (home or away).
Everyday Uniform On non Health/Gym class days and non Formal Uniform days.
Spirit Wear/Swag (e.g. House Tshirts) On Spirit Days and at recess

During our transition from TopMarks to InSchoolwear, students can combine pieces from both providers. As our priority is to avoid waste, there is no set time frame being implemented for the transition.

Any type of hat may only be worn outside at recess, but wearing hats is not permitted in class.

A breakdown of pieces within each uniform, by grade division is available in the visual guidebook below. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Carrie Weston at cweston@montcrest.ca.

Used Uniforms

Guided by our sustainability goals, students can continue to wear TopMarks uniform pieces that are in good condition for the 2024/25 school year. 

Please refer to the Uniform Guidelines to see how you can combine older TopMarks pieces with newer pieces from InSchoolwear.

Families are welcome to drop off their used uniform donations to Montcrest:

  • Please wash and bag all used uniform items.
  • At your convenience, please drop off used uniforms at 658 Broadview Avenue or 4 Montcrest Blvd. Staff will regularly collect the bags and keep them safely for our community donation or future used uniform sales.

Used Uniform Sales
The MPA runs Used Uniform Sales each term. See the Montcrest Mirror for exact dates.

Montcrest is building community partnerships to ensure that unwearable used uniforms can be recycled or repurposed rather than going to landfills.
