SCHOOL UNIFORM
St Joseph's School uniform can now be purchased from NZ Uniforms who have a shop at 819 Heretaunga Street West, St Leonards, Hastings.
Summer Caps and Hats (compulsory wearing in Term 1 & 4) are available from the school office. We hold a small selection of second hand items in the school office.
EXPECTED DRESS CODE
Our smart, functional uniform assists students to develop a sense of belonging, and pride in themselves and their school.We rely on parents/caregivers to help us:
- Maintain a good standard of dress
- Confine jewellery to a wristwatch and 1 set of ear studs only
- Keep facial makeup and fingernail polish for weekends and special occasions
- Maintain hairstyles that are appropriate and safe for all school activities (if necessary hair should be tied back). Hair fringes must not obstruct eyes/ vision / view. Radical styles and coloured hair are unacceptable.
- Comply with footwear requirements e.g. no sneakers/basketball boots for day wear (acceptable for sports activities only)
- Ensure that all clothing is clearly NAMED
- Please note that students with additional piercings will be asked to remove them
Taonga - Cultural (e.g. bone carving, pounamu), religious (e.g. Catholic cross, Hindu shakti) - at St Joseph's School, there is a right to wear the appropriate items without prejudice or bias. Taonga is best kept underneath clothing during Technology classes. Taonga should be removed for PE & Sport lessons, all due to safety for not being caught and or ripped off; protecting wearers or those interacting with you if in a physical capacity.
