Uniform and Equipment
Newington's distinctive colours of Black and White date from around 1868.
The Black and White
Newington boys have been wearing the Black and White since 1869 where, before official school uniforms, it first appeared on the rugby field.
Today the distinctive black blazer with sharp white trim, black and white striped tie and the fierce Wyvern atop the motto scroll ‘In Fide Scientiam’ — ‘To Faith Add Knowledge’ all feature in the Newington College uniform.
The boys proudly pull on the Black and White for each of the AAGPS official sports whenever they represent the College on the field of play. Our 1sts and 2nds teams wear their own strip in recognition of their effort and commitment in representing Newington at the highest levels.
The Full Blazer Uniform
While the boys are busy in academic classes it's blazers off and sleeves up but for events and ceremonies the boys show their respect for the College and the occasion by wearing the Full Blazer Uniform.
The Uniform Shop
The Newington Uniform Shop, operated by Midford, is in the Concordia Building on Stanmore Road. Parking is accessible via 156 Cavendish St, Stanmore.

Items from the Black & White store make excellent gifts for former students (Old Boys) and new boys coming into the school.
The range is updated annually and items come and go seasonally. All items are available for sale at the Newington Uniform Shop in Concordia.
The P&F vision is A stronger community through a connected community. With that sentiment, the store is run by parent volunteers. Any surplus goes back into programs and activities to support our boys. If you would like to volunteer, please contact us.
