Uniform

by Dot Agnew

.We are proud of the identity our uniform gives us and children wear  full uniform every day.  You can buy Ladbrooks School royal blue polo shirts, fleeces, sweatshirts and wide-brimmed hats, navy tracksuit pants and shorts at the Hornby Warehouse.

You can order Merino wool jerseys on Kindo and PALS sells second-hand uniform items as well through that portal. Second hand uniform items are stored at school.

It is essential that each item of school wear is CLEARLY NAMED.


Our uniform

  • Navy drill shorts, or navy track pants, culottes (culottes will become obsolete when existing stock sold)
  • Checked dress (culottes and dresses will become obsolete when existing stock sold). Both these items are still available through Mainland Uniforms.
  • Royal blue polo shirt with School Logo
  • Royal blue sweatshirt and/or polar fleece embroidered with Ladbrooks School logo, Merino or School jacket

Please make sure that any shorts and pants worn are navy blue and do not have any obvious logo’s on them.

Children can wear blue thermal tops and navy tights in winter. 

Hats: A royal blue wide-brimmed or bucket hat is required in Term 1 and Term 4.

Lost Property: We encourage children to be responsible for their gear and anything that is found will be put in the Lost Property Chair at the front of the school.

Hoodies: Year 8's will have the option to purchase a Royal Blue Hoodie.

Sports: Any blue navy shorts can be worn with either a school provided sport-top or the school polo shirt.

Swimming: Children can wear any colour togs but must wear a rash vest.

Jewellery, makeup, nail polish, coloured tights and 'other' tops are not part of our school uniform and should not be worn at school. Pounamu and other significantly important jewellery should be tucked under shirts to avoid injury during sport and play.

It is strongly advised that children with pierced ears wear small studs to avoid accidents.

Practical shoes are a must.
