Students are expected to wear correct school uniform at school, when travelling to and from school, at official school events and on official school trips as appropriate.
Expectations
Students are expected and encouraged to take pride in their general appearance and follow these guidelines:
- All uniform items should be clean and tidy and worn correctly at all times.
- All uniform items must be clearly named.
- If, for a valid reason, a student is unable to wear correct uniform they need a note from home.
- Hair should be kept clean and tidy.
- Skirts should be correct school uniform and of appropriate length.
- The only items of jewellery permitted are sleepers or plain studs, a watch, a culturally significant item such as a taonga worn around the neck. Allowed jewellery should be removed when necessary for health and safety reasons (such as during Physical Education). Other body piercings (e.g. nose, eyebrow) must be free of jewellery during the school day.
- Additional dress guidelines are issued prior to any mufti days.
In agreement with SAS Sports Ltd. all school apparel requirements including, but not limited to: school uniform, sports uniforms, and leaver’s apparel etc. must be sourced from SAS Sports Ltd.
