UNIFORM

EBIS has a school uniform which we want our students to wear with pride.

Wearing the correct uniform helps students feel a sense of belonging and ensures they look smart in the community, reflecting well on our school. We ask that parents ensure students wear the correct uniform each day, and provide a note if there is a reason they are unable to.

We are currently updating parts of the uniform (long sleeve polar fleece, polo shirt, and PE shirt). As old stock runs out, new stock will be introduced. In 2018 the Board approved a new school logo, which will be phased in over time. Over the next couple of years, there will be a mix of old and new uniform, so there is no immediate need to purchase new items.

Our EBIS uniform is made up of:

  • EBIS polo shirt

  • EBIS shorts

  • EBIS long pants

  • EBIS long sleeved polar fleece or EBIS hoodie

  • EBIS PE shirt

  • Black ankle socks

Other items which may be worn are:

  • Long sleeved black polyprops (winter) under polo shirts

  • Watch (No smart watches)

  • Simple studs or small sleepers (no larger than 10mm in diameter)

  • Black or EBIS blue head bands

  • Black or EBIS blue beanies - worn outside only

  • Caps or sunhats - worn outside only

  • Black/ EBIS blue leggings or tights

Our students come from a variety of cultural and religious backgrounds. Items such as a cross, pounamu, or a black/EBIS blue head scarf may be worn with the uniform.

The following items are not permitted (health and safety reasons):

  • Non-school hoodies

  • Makeup

  • Nail polish

  • Necklaces, anklets, bracelets

  • Earrings other than simple studs or small sleepers (no larger than 10mm)

  • Visible facial piercings 

Non-uniform days are held throughout the year and linked to different events or causes, such as Pink Shirt Day. Dates will be listed in the school calendar. Students who choose not to participate are expected to wear full school uniform.

Non-Uniform Days

Non-Uniform days occur once a month with the date being listed in the school calendar. Students wishing to wear mufti need to bring $2 to their class teacher on non-uniform day. Should your child not want to wear non-uniformt hey must come to school in their school uniform.
