Uniform Update

RJHS —

Our uniform will be unavailable for purchase from March 24th for one week.

This will allow an opportunity for our new supplier to conduct a stocktake of current stock.  Once this is complete, the Rototuna High Schools uniform supplier will be Uniform Group, under their retail brand The U Shop.

Their physical store is located at 125 Ward Street, Hamilton. They will also have an online store. We are excited to announce the following additions to our RJHS school uniform:

  • The school blazer will be available for all Junior High School students. When surveyed, 50% of our students indicated they would wear a blazer. Although the cost of the blazer is higher than other uniform options, blazers have significant longevity and can usually be on-sold when your child has finished wearing it to recoup some cost. 

  • Full length skirt (to the ankle) 

  • Long sleeve option on the girls’ blouse 

  • School branded lava lava 

  • 7/8 length black exercise tights as a girls PE option

  • Female cut shorts

  • Female cut long pants

📝Based on feedback from students and whānau, we are also making design changes to our:

  • Polo shirt

  • Skirt

  • PE shirt

  • Hoodie

New items will be available throughout the year when they are ready.

There will be a transition period where existing stock of all uniform items are phased out and are replaced by new uniform pieces. For all of 2025 and 2026, all existing or new RJHS uniform items can be purchased by all RJHS students.

From 2027, all new students will be expected to purchase and wear new uniform items. Existing students can continue to wear all items until they need to be replaced. Should you have any issues in outfitting your student in correct uniform during the transition period there are a few options available:

  • There is a selection of uniforms available second hand from our school reception.

  • You could hold off purchasing warmer options until needed e.g. once winter starts. 

  • Year 11s can wear Junior High bottoms

  • Junior Students can wear Senior High bottoms if the Junior stock has run out.

  • An update from our current supplier shows that they may run out of PE shorts before March. If there are no PE shorts available in your child’s size in store, generic black sports/activewear shorts can be worn until the new supplier has them available and is selling our stock.

📌It is a timely reminder that all students should only be wearing PE uniform on days they have a Health & PE class. This includes the uniform tracksuit pants. On days a student does not have an HPE class, they should be in regular uniform, and should not be wearing tracksuit pants.

We encourage whānau to ensure they have enough uniform items, especially shirts/tops to get through the week, allowing for laundry days. An increasing number of students are coming to school without uniform shirts mid-week citing that their only uniform shirt "is still in the wash".
