The introduction of our school uniform in 2012 is a significant milestone for Wadestown School. Families can choose from the range of uniform items that are available for purchase.
The uniform is described in this document.
Our uniform supplier is NZ Uniforms (NZU). NZU have prepared a leaflet giving details of the uniform, including examples of how it may be worn and prices. The uniform is available from the NZU retail store at 167 Thorndon Quay. Details of their opening hours are contained in the leaflet.
The leaflet from NZ Uniforms can be downloaded here.
A discount of 20% has been negotiated with NZU for uniform purchases made prior to 29 February 2012. The discount is available through both the NZU retail store and the online shop. It is recommended that you visit the retail store before buying online to check sizing and view the items to best determine which are most suitable for your child.
The web address for the NZ Uniforms online shop is http://wadestown.nzuniforms.com.
The uniform is optional from the start of term 1 2012 before becoming compulsory at the beginning of term 2 for children in years 1 to 6. Children in years 7 and 8 may wear the uniform if they wish to.
In 2013 uniform will be compulsory for children in years 1-7. Children in year 8 may wear the uniform if they wish to.
