Rototuna High Schools maintains a NO tolerance bullying policy. Homophobia and transphobia ARE considered bullying.
Talk to your advisory teacher and they can change it for you. It's as simple as that.
Here at RHS we have multiple choices for uniform pieces, including shorts, a skort, long pants, and a skirt, and gender does not dictate who can wear what. There will be no repurcussions from the school about whatever uniform piece you choose to wear.
Queer Club is a group for any LGBTQ+ or questioning students or allies who want to learn more and support their friends. We run every Thursday lunchtime in Mangapu 1. We have a biweekly schedule with every first week being an educational presentation about queer identities, history, or culture, then every second week we have a game, a speaker, or just some chill time to chat with people in the community at our school.
Swapped is a group specifically for Trans and Nonbinary students to hang out and chat about what our school can do for trans people or just to belt out whatever song is stuck in your head at the moment.
