New Zealand School Sweaters: Other Colors


Figure 1.--Increasingly New Zealand schools are now adopting more brightly colored sweaters. Here we see boys wearing both the old grey sweaters as well as the new red ones.  

Increasingly New Zealand schools are now adopting more brightly colored sweaters. They are replacing the more traditional grey school sweaters. We noted several schools in the midst of making the change from grey sweaters. For a short period the schools allowed the students to wear both the old and new sweaters. In addition to the grey and dark blue school sweaters, We noticed schools with other color sweaters such as bright blue, brown, green, and red. Usually these colored sweaters did not have colored trim so common with the grey sweaters. Often the color selected was the same as the school blazer. The colored sweaters were normally worn with grey long or short pants. Other parts of the uniform such as the color of the blazer or the trim on the kneesocks did not change.
