Q: I have already been fitted and made payments to the school for my uniform. How do I collect it?
A: Your order will be available at the school reception from 27 January 2025. If you need any adjustments, NZ Uniforms will manage these directly.
Q: Can I purchase uniforms at the school reception?
A: We will not have uniforms available for immediate purchase at school. However, we can assist you with placing an online order through NZ Uniforms for delivery to your home or to the school.
Q: What if I purchased a new uniform from the school but now need a different size?
A: NZ Uniforms can handle exchanges. Please take your school-issued receipt to the NZ Uniforms store to arrange this.
Note: In response to feedback, we will be making modest changes to some uniform garments as we transition manufacturing to our new supplier over the coming years. Please rest assured that all current uniform items are acceptable, and there is no obligation for families to replace current uniform items with the updated versions. The new items will be of a similar style with minor adjustments.
