Uniform

With the introduction of a new uniform for Year 7-10 in 2022 we are going to be in a transition phase. This means that if current students still want to wear last years uniform they are permitted (we do not want to add unncessary financial pressue to any family). Boys can wear the grey shirt, black shorts/trousers and grey socks. Girls are permitted to wear the winter uniform all year (optional between black crew socks or black stockings).

Senior students do not have any change to their uniform.

The new uniform can be purchased from NZ uniforms. This comprises of a regulation green polo shirt, green fleece, plain black skirt/shorts or pants and short length black socks for both boys and girls.

All students must have black leather polishable shoes or black leather T Bar shoes for girls.

In addition to these items students can wear a plain black puffer jacket.

Stationary

Stationary items can be purchased from Office Max, myschool.co.nz, where you look up East Otago High School and follow the instructions.

We are all looking forward to a great year and can't wait to see all our students back and hear about their holidays. Enjoy the last couple of weeks!

Please feel free to contact us by email, office@eohs.school.nz, if you have any further questions.
