School Uniform

The Hinds Board of Trustees and Hinds Uniform Committee  have  reviewed the Hinds School uniform with our community.  In 2021 the sports top was upgraded a school jacket was introduced.   Please see below our updated  daily uniform and the transition phase.

We have some limited items of second hand uniforms available at the Office to assist with starting at Hinds School.   Please enquire when you enrol your child.  The second hand uniforms are actively used by all students and whānau are very good at sending in outgrown items.
