Uniform

Whaea Sarah —

Our children take pride in belonging to Te Kāpehu Riccarton School.

We believe wearing a uniform promotes a sense of belonging and pride in our school and in self. We are pleased to advise that our new uniform is now available from NZ Uniforms, 455 Blenheim Road.

Please ensure your child is coming to school in the correct uniform. Currently, this may be our new school uniform or our old school uniform while we transition everyone into the new uniform over time. Please only purchase the new uniform when you need to update an existing item. All new learners will be wearing the new uniform. It will phase in over a year or two, so there is no need for you to go and buy the new uniform straight away. When you need to replace current uniform item in the future, just buy the new version of that item then. We do not want the introduction of the new uniform to be an additional cost to you.

If you are experiencing any issues with accessing uniform items, please let us know.

Uniform

  • Teal polo shirt with school logo
  • Navy school sweatshirt with school logo
  • Navy polar fleece with school logo (optional)
  • Black trackpants/shorts

Please clearly name all uniform items.

We will no longer have second-hand uniform items for sale at the office.

Sensible footwear is essential. Should your child wear gumboots in the winter, please send another pair of shoes as well, for classroom and sportswear.
Jandals are not acceptable footwear at school as they are the cause of many accidents.
