A Mickleham school opening next year has unveiled the design of its uniforms and logo.
Holy Cross Catholic Primary School principal Mark Miatello said the logo featured three elements – a heart, cross and hands.
Mr Miatello said the elements represented the school’s motto of “Love, Hope and Unity”.
“I think the logo is very successful in representing the key messages of the cross, as well as the hills represented through the heart in the logo being unique to the area of Mickleham,” he said.
“It represents how we will all be journeying together at Holy Cross Mickleham.
“Our hero colour will be purple as purple is a regal colour and is the colour of Christ’s passion – a very significant colour in the life of the church.
“The grey represents the ash with which Catholic’s mark themselves with the cross during the season of lent, and green is the colour of hope.”
Mr Miatello said interest in the new school was high.
“There has been amazing enrolment interest for Holy Cross, not only for the prep year but across all levels as well,” he said.
“Families have been telling me how happy they are to have a new schooling option available to the community.”
The school is on schedule to open its doors in term one next year.
