Uniform

See the Rolleston College website for the uniform guidelines.

• If you are wearing an incorrect uniform item a staff member can confiscate this and it will be returned to you at the next mufti day.

• If it is an item like shorts, these can be replaced with a temporary pair provided by the school.

• Family/Whanau will be notified.

• If your learner is unable to wear the correct uniform or uniform item, please send a note explaining why. They will then be issued a uniform pass for the day.
