Uniform Expectation Reminder

AGHS —

We encourage girls to take pride in their appearance and ask parents to support the school in seeing that their daughter maintains a neat and clean standard of correct school uniform. For a full description of uniform rules see: AGHS uniform

Uniform Rules:

  • Students may wear any combination of the new uniform items.
  • Hair must be tidy. If worn long it must be tied back in practical subjects. Hair colour must be within the natural range. Extreme hairstyles are not acceptable.
  • Jewellery is not permitted other than a wristwatch and plain ear studs.
  • A small discreet nose stud is permitted. All other facial piercings (including the tongue) are not part of the school uniform.
  • Taonga – a bone or greenstone carving may be worn.
  • Makeup, if worn, should be minimal and discreet.
  • Clear or ‘natural look’ nails are permitted – acrylic nails and long nails pose health and safety concerns in practical subjects.
  • A plain, solid colour black or dark green head scarf may be work for religious or cultural reasons.
  • The soft-shell jacket, hat and cap may be worn outdoors with both the new and old uniform.


Students must see their Kaitiaki if incorrect uniform is worn.
