Stationery

Stationery packs can be purchased online from Qizzle and are delivered to your home. Qizzle does not have any retail shops so we recommend that you order this now or early in the new year so it arrives on time. Packs are set for each team and year level as specified on https://schoolpacks.co.nz/. Search for Clearview Primary, enter your child’s name and choose the team/year level, then select the stationery items you require. If your child is a new entrant, select the New Entrant then Uranga list. Please note: all of the stationery on the list will be required at school, but some items are sundry and do not need to be purchased brand new. You may have some items (suncream or book box) from the previous year so you are welcome to reuse these.

School Uniform

Please visit our school website (www.clearview.school.nz) for our uniform guidelines. Our supplier is NZ Uniforms and the uniform can be ordered online at nzuniforms.com/clearview or you can visit their shop at 455 Blenheim Road, Sockburn. Their hours are Monday-Friday 9.00am-5.00pm and Saturday 9.00am-4.00pm. Sunhats are compulsory in Term 1 and 4 and are available at the office for $18.00 each.

Our Parent Community Group (PCG) holds a second hand uniform sale each term. They will hold a sale at the open day on Monday 30th January, 1.00-3.00pm, in the hall. They have a selection of most uniform items. As this is held the day before school starts, please ensure that you do have one item of the polo shirt, skort or shorts and sunhat, so the children can arrive on Wednesday in their correct school uniform. Please email them at pcg@clearview.school.nz for more details.

Please ensure all items are named.

BYOD

At Clearview, we encourage families to purchase a BYOD device for their child from Year 3 upwards. This will ensure that their child has consistent access to a device whenever required and it is set up for their individual needs. For more information please visit our school website www.clearview.school.nz/byod-clearview/
