Uniforms

In 1980 our school was given the right to use the kowhaiwhai pattern that is seen on the school blazer, on the sports uniforms and in the gymnasium. It depicts the mangopare, and is symbolised by the double koru. This used to be emblazoned on the school gold and brown jersey. We have kept it on our blazer and sports uniforms.

Porirua College introduced a new school uniform in partnership with Kia Kaha Clothing in 2006. All Year 9 students from 2008 are expected to purchase these uniform items from the College. More information is in the enrolment packs.

New school buildings: the school is being completely rebuilt and new school buildings and a new uniform contributes to the rebranding of the school.

We require all students to wear the College/Kia Kaha black pants, skirt or ie lavalava. Plain black shoes and the College shirt or white polar top must also be worn. Students must then wear either the school blazer, and College/Kia Kaha blue vest [the tie is optional] or the College/Kia Kaha school jacket.

The school supplies all uniform items except for shoes. An itemised information sheet is available at the school office, or in the enrolment pack.
