Celebrating our new Premier Education Partnership
Valour Sport and St Catherine’s School unveil a new era of sport through performance, innovation and community
Valour Sport and St Catherine’s School have partnered to deliver a bold new chapter in school sport, launching a refreshed PE and sports uniform suite that blends performance innovation with the rich heritage of one of Australia’s leading independent schools for girls.
The collaboration reflects a shared belief that what students wear can shape how they feel, play and connect. Designed through a collaborative process involving students, staff and parents, the new collection reflects St Cath’s deep sense of belonging while embracing Valour’s technical expertise and commitment to Australian-led innovation.
“At Valour, we design with purpose. Partnering with St Catherine’s has been about more than creating a new sports uniform. It has been about listening to students, respecting the school’s heritage and applying our expertise to deliver apparel that performs at the highest level. This new suite reflects what we stand for: Australian innovation, sustainable practices and a genuine commitment to helping young athletes feel confident, comfortable and united every time they wear the St Cath’s crest.” Ryan Tesoriero, Director, Valour Sport
A partnership built on shared purpose and values
The partnership between Valour and St Catherine’s represents more than the creation of new uniforms. It is the alignment of two organisations that share a deep commitment to community, empowerment and progress.
At Valour, the three guiding pillars of Expertise, Australian, and Innovation drive every partnership. Through this collaboration, those principles have seamlessly connected with St Cath’s own values of belonging, character, and courage. Together, they have created a collection that honours tradition while embracing the future of sport for girls.
Valour’s expertise in high-performance apparel design ensured each garment was tested and refined to meet the demands of modern sport, while maintaining the aesthetic and identity that define St Cath’s long-standing heritage. As an Australian company, Valour champions local design, sustainable production and responsible innovation, ensuring quality that reflects both craftsmanship and conscience.
For St Cath’s, this partnership demonstrates the school’s enduring dedication to nurturing confident young women who are prepared to thrive in every aspect of life. The new collection empowers students to feel strong, comfortable and connected, on the field, in the classroom and within their community.
The sportswear suite incorporates advanced fabric technology, improved fit and practical design details including enhanced stretch, breathability and reversible options. Each element was influenced by student feedback and tested for comfort and performance.
“In working with Valour, we’ve seen how expertise and innovation can transform a uniform into something much more than clothing. The new St Cath’s sportswear is designed for performance, comfort and inclusivity, while still reflecting the proud heritage of our school. Partnering with an Australian company who shares our values has given our students apparel that represents who they are and how they play — confident, united and future-focused.” Ben McCloghry, Head of Community Relations, St Catherine’s School]
This partnership celebrates a shared vision, to inspire confidence, performance and unity through design. It symbolises how Australian innovation, when paired with authentic community collaboration, can redefine what school sport looks and feels like for generations to come.
