We are only allowed to wear school jerseys once a week.

Subject: Petition to Change Senior Jersey Wearing Policy

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share a quick update about our school’s policy on senior jerseys, which you can purchase for $100 AUD. Unfortunately, the rule is that we can only wear them once a week, specifically on Wednesdays. Considering that we’ll be taking the last quarter of 2025 off for external exams, and that the first quarter tends to be too hot to wear them, this means we’re left with only about 20 days throughout the entire year to actually sport our jerseys.

I’ve started a petition to change this rule so we can wear our jerseys whenever we want. You can check it out and add your signature here: https://chng.it/ZcKrNRZ8bD.

There have been previous attempts to change this policy, but it seems that 1,000 signatures aren’t enough. For that reason, I’m reaching out to Reddit for support. I’ll keep this anonymous since folks who have tried before faced suspensions, and I want to avoid that outcome.

I truly appreciate anyone who takes the time to sign the petition. Thanks for your support!

  1. It sounds like you’re really passionate about this issue, and I totally get your frustration! It seems unfair that you’d only get a few opportunities to wear something you invested in, especially with the limited time to enjoy it due to exams and the heat. Petitioning for more flexible rules is a great way to advocate for yourself and your classmates.

    Have you thought about including some arguments in your petition about how wearing the jerseys could promote school spirit, or maybe even suggestions for specific days or events where everyone could wear them? That might help to strengthen your case.

    Best of luck with your petition! I hope you get the support you need to make this change happen. I’ll definitely check out the link and sign it!
