School Uniform Expectations
Hutt Valley High School is a uniform school. Every student is expected to wear the correct full school uniform. We have worked hard to give our students agency and choice whilst remaining a uniform-wearing school. Our uniform is inclusive, there are no defined boys’ or girls’ items, and students may wear any combination of our approved uniform items.
Approved uniform items are available from the Resource Centre, which is open Monday through Thursday from 11:00am to 2:30pm (during term time only). We expect students to wear the approved uniform items well. They should look good, feel good, and be a visible part of our school community.
Parents and caregivers are asked to ensure that uniforms and footwear are in good order at the start of each term and that students leave home each day in the correct uniform. Please speak with the year-level Deans if you require assistance.
The full details of the school uniform are published in the Resource Centre Brochure (PDF)
