Be SunSmart - Wear your hat!

Every Sale College student now has a new sun hat that can help protect them from the harsh UV rays that are so prevalent at this time of year in our part of the world.

Try to check the UV index on the SunSmart widget below each day to see the UV forecast and wear your hat!

The UV Index measures UV levels on a scale from 0 (Low) to 11+ (Extreme). Sun protection is recommended when UV levels are 3 (Moderate) or higher.

Students are encouraged to practice sun smart behaviours at school and wear hats when outside, use shade and apply SPF 50+ sunscreen. Sunscreen is provided at school in the front office, staffrooms and year level offices. Students should read the school SunSmart policy (link below) to find out more.
