WBHS UNIFORM

Boys who attend WBHS are expected to wear their uniform correctly and with pride at all times – whilst at school, to and from school and when representing the school.

*If you are not purchasing items of uniform from a school approved uniform supplier (Uniform Hub, Bethells and the Warehouse), please contact the school to have the uniform item approved.

UNIFORM FOR STUDENTS IN YEARS 9 – 13:

Hat:  The only hats permitted will be the school cap and the school bucket hat.  Cap peaks must be worn forward. A plain black beanie may be worn during the winter terms 2 and 3. Hats off indoors.

Shirt: Regulation blue “polo” shirt with school monogram.  Shirts may be out with short pants but must be tucked in when wearing a jersey/sweatshirt.

Trousers: Grey school shorts – plain with zip fly and side tabs – waistband must be above hips, hem must be above knee.  Oversized shorts/trousers are unacceptable.

Long, light grey dress trousers (NOT denim, corduroy or cargoes), with black/grey belt. No cuffs, waistband must be above hips, hem above shoes.  (Shirts must be tucked in if long trousers are worn.)

Sulu/Tupenu: The black formal sulu/tupenu with school monogram may also be worn, by all year levels.  The sulu/tupenu must be worn respectfully at all times and may be worn with both number ones and the standard uniform.  Ideally, the sulu/tupenu will be worn with sandals.

Socks: With shorts, either grey socks with school colours or black ankle socks can be worn. If students do not wish to wear socks pulled up, they have an alternative in sandals (see below).

Jersey: Regulation navy blue jersey as manufactured for the school (school colours around neck and school monogram on left side of chest).

Sweatshirt: Regulation black as manufactured for the school with monogram on left side of chest.

Jacket: Boys may wear the school’s Black and Gold Jacket, or the black weatherproof, lined anorak with a fold away hood. No other coloured raincoats will be permitted. Sports codes offering jackets for their teams will be expected to use this jacket, no alternative sports jackets are acceptable as school uniform.

P.E: Boys should wear plain black football-type shorts with whanau-coloured T-shirt or singlet.

Footwear:

Plain black lace up shoes OR sandals, black or brown (not jandals) to be worn with strap over the heel.  Sandals may only be worn with shorts or sulu/tupanu. The term “plain” means NO coloured labels, soles or, in the case of sandals, no colour patterns on the straps.  No ‘booties’ – shoes only. When wearing number ones (dress uniform) black leather shoes that can be polished are compulsory.

Jewelry: Jewelry items permitted to be worn are a watch or medic-alert bracelet. Students may wear a taonga. Earrings may also be worn (one small stud earring in each ear). No nail polish. No sunglasses.

Hair: Students must be clean and tidy at all times. Long hair must be tied back.

Garments worn as undergarments: Only plain white singlets or T-shirts may be worn.  They must not hang down below the school shirt either at the waist or sleeves.

Dress uniform: Referred to as Number Ones.

Consists of: Plain white long-sleeve shirt, light grey long trousers (not denim or corduroy), plain black leather lace-up shoes that can be polished, Whangārei Boys’ High School blazer and a Whangārei Boys’ High School tie.  (Blazers available from Northland School Wear, Kamo; and Bethells).  Number Ones cannot be worn with the school sweatshirt or jacket.

Prefects and Yr 13 Senior Leaders must wear dress uniform.  In terms 1 and 4, Prefects and Year 13 Senior Leaders and other Yr 13 students may wear open neck short sleeve white shirts. In this instance, Y13 students are not required to wear a school tie.
