SCHOOL UNIFORM
All St Joseph's School uniform items can be purchased from NZ Uniforms who have a shop at 819 Heretaunga Street West, St Leonards, Hastings. Each stock item size will be on display for trying on, then any items purchased will be retrieved from their stock stored onsite.
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 one 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.
