UNIFORM REGULATIONS

Excellent personal presentation is encouraged and expected at all times.

The following regulations apply to the uniform at all times:

✓  The blazer is to be worn at all times in public/on the street. This applies in summer and winter unless the weather is extremely hot and students are advised otherwise.

✓  The cardigan is not to be worn by itself in public/on the street.

✓  All uniform items must be clearly named, clean, tidy and untorn.

✓  School bags must be appropriate to school and free of graffiti.

✓  Rain coats worn to school must be black. Puffer jackets are not part of our uniform.

✓  Only the regulation school scarf is able to be worn. This is available at the uniform shop.

✓  Make-up and/or nail polish should not be worn.

✓  Summer ankle socks should come up above the ankle bone. There should be no visible branding.

✓  The winter skirt/kilt is to come down to mid-calf length and the summer skirt is to be no shorter than 2cm above the knee.

✓  The PE Uniform is not to be worn in class.

✓  The PE Uniform is not to be worn with the blazer. A tracksuit jacket or hoodie is the appropriate article if going to practice.

✓  Regulation school blouses are to be worn with appropriately coloured undergarments.

 

Hair

✓  Natural: neatly tied back at all times (including to/from school and during PE) if longer than collar length; if dyed, only one colour. Extreme styles/colours are not permitted.

✓  Hair ties and clips should be discrete in colour and design.

 

Jewellery

✓  A watch and ear studs may be worn. No other jewellery is to be worn with the uniform. Earrings must be a matching pair of gold/silver keepers or studs – no more than two in each ear.

✓  Girls may wear one necklace of cultural or religious significance as long as they are discrete. These items should be worn underneath the blouse, not as fashion accessories.

✓  Any jewellery outside of these allowances may be confiscated for half of the current term.

 

Please also note

✓  Correct uniform must be worn for PE. We recommend PE items are kept in a separate, named bag.

✓  Clearly name all uniform so it can be returned if lost.

✓  We encourage the girls to wear a sunhat/cap during P.E in summer.

The school reserves the right to advise students and whānau when it considers that their appearance does not meet the school regulations.
