Uniform

In 2003, the School uniform at Sunnybank High changed with the arrival of a new principal. A new sports uniform consisting of teal green with the addition of vertical black, yellow and white lines replaced the original green and white previously used. The new formal uniform appeared as a white dress shirt and striped tie in accordance with the new school colours, in conjunction with black shorts and long pants for males. Female uniforms also required the use of a shorter tie, white dress shirt and light green skirts. The new formal uniform replaced the previous uniform composed of either green shirts with grey shorts or white dress shirts with black pants and green tie for males, and green and white striped dress shirts and black pants or green skirt for females.

The wide range of regional folk costumes show influence from historical Austrian, Hungarian, German, Italian, and Ottoman Turkish presence. Nonetheless, the costumes are still a pinnacle part of Serbian folk culture. From the 19th century and onwards, Serbs have adopted western-styled clothing. This change has started in larger settlements such as cities and towns, although it was not uncommon to see rural women in traditional working costumes all the way until the end of President Josip Broz Tito's term. Today, these national costumes are only worn by some elderly in rural areas but are most often worn with connection to special events and celebrations, mostly at ethnic festivals, religious and national holidays, weddings, tourist attractions, and by dancing groups who dance the traditional Serbian kolo, or circle dance.
