Uniform Information & Policy

Robyn Bradley —

Uniforms can be purchased online at NZ Uniforms, or in-store at 151A Hilton Highway, Washdyke, Timaru.

All students must adhere to the school dress code. It is an important part of developing pride, loyalty, and an identity within the school as well as self-management skills, and so we require all students to wear the school uniform correctly at all times, and in a way which is consistent with our Special Character. The school holds parents responsible for supplying their children with the correct school uniform and for keeping it clean and in good condition. If an item needs replacing or an incorrect uniform item is worn to school, parents will be texted to let them know. Please do not be offended by this; it is something that can be easily overlooked in the morning rush. If a replacement item is not able to be purchased for a few days, please send a note or text to school so the classroom teacher is aware that you are taking action. Second-hand clothing is available from the School Office and we are happy to loan items if required. When a student has the correct uniform but chooses not to wear it, they will be given an item from the secondhand clothing shop to borrow for the day. All items of clothing should be clearly labelled.
