At Pukenui School we care about our tamariki and their image in the community. The way students present themselves conveys a strong message about the students themselves and their Kura.

A School Uniform Aims to:

● Promote equality amongst all tamariki.

● Develop kotahitanga and a sense of pride in and identification with our Kura.

● Identify our tamariki in the community as representing Pukenui School.

● Maintain and enhance the positive image of our Kura in the community.

Considerations for Selecting a School Uniform:

● Unisex: there is no boy’s or girl’s uniform.

● Can be worn all year round; there is no summer or winter uniform.

● Comfortable and practical for our Kura environment.

● Of good quality, that is affordable.

● Fitting & Style.

● Colour code that represents Pukenui School.

The Pukenui School Board of Trustees is committed to supporting all our whānau with the initial cost of purchasing school uniforms for their tamariki.

We accept Eftpos or cash at the School Office.

Pukenui School offers a payment plan. Parents/Caregivers can purchase stationery and uniform items from the office and pay over the year with weekly/fortnightly installments that work for your whānau. There is no cost due up-front.

Installment Payments:

● can be made at the school office OR

● you can set up Automatic Payments by using your bank’s internet banking facilities.

Bottoms & Shoes

Students may wear either long trousers/pants, leggings, shorts, skirts, etc, as long as they are black and tidy. These can be items of clothing which your child already has. There are no specific shoes required.
