It’s Your First Day Studying with The National School of Aesthetics
Your first day studying with The National School of Aesthetics can be exciting and overwhelming. Relax! Here’s what you need to bring and what you should expect.

What to Wear on Your First Day
You should always wear your full uniform to school.
IIf you are unable to get a uniform for the first day, a plain black button-up shirt with plain black dress pants are suitable. See the image below for what a “plain black button-up shirt” looks like.

Since the supplier has a quick turn-around time on creating uniforms, we hope there is little to no delay in you getting your uniform.
What to Bring on Your First Day
Please bring:
- Pens
- Paper
- Your first aid certificate (if you haven’t turned it in already)
- Your digital copy of your Student Handbook
We cover this information in the Before You Start the Course page.
You will be directed to the Great Hall and meet your classmates before we start orientation.
You’ll need to bring your carrying case with all your supplies from the second day onwards.
Please ensure you turn your cellphone to off or non-transmitting (flight) mode before putting it back into your bag.
Your cell phone is not allowed in class as it can interfere with some of our equipment.
What We Do on Your First Day
On your first day, we go through an orientation presentation and short lecture reviewing important information we covered in the interview presentation, which you should have watched before your course kōrero. You can find the interview presentation on our Web site here: www.nasa.co.nz/enrol/interview-presentation/
You can also find a copy of the orientation presentation on our Web site here: www.nasa.co.nz/students/during-your-course/orientation-presentation/
The Education and Teaching Team will then dive further into orientation information surrounding classes.
