    Meanwhile, a school that provides free uniforms says it's paid off in attendance


    Rotorua's Kaitao Intermediate School provides students one formal uniform, one sports uniform and all stationery.

    It uses its annual Ministry of Education bulk operational funding to cover the 40-thousand-dollar cost, approved by its Board of Trustees.

    Principal Phil Palfrey says it's resulted in an increase in students starting school.
