Clontarf's formal uniform consists of a grey buttoned dress shirt with the school acronym on the shirt pocket with white socks and leather lace up shoes for the girls, grey shorts and grey shirt for the boys with long knee high socks and leather lace up shoes.

It is mostly dark green and has yellow and blue stripes on the sides and a yellow and blue collar, while the dark green shorts and white socks have been retained from the old uniform.

Sport

Clontarf has a proud history of sporting achievements that has unfortunately been reduced to mainly on-campus sport in recent years. The school competes against other schools in the district of Redcliffe such as Redcliffe State High School, Southern Cross Catholic College, Grace Lutheran College and Mueller College in years 8 and 9. Students can enroll in the year 8 and 9 soccer development program and also compete competitively against other schools in various sports like rugby league, soccer, netball, Rugby Union and basketball.
