In term 2 Hub 3 started doing P.E and we had to get changed, we did not have a school sports uniform, so we brought our own old clothes. Damien, Fatima and Dani one day thought that we should have a school sports uniform. So Miss Holland suggested that we do a P.M.I presentation and present it to the Friends of Stonefields School, the Board of Trustee's and Miss Martin (she's our principal) Then after that, Miss Martin asked us if we would like to be in the design process of the school sports uniform! We were definitely going to say yes!
We were so excited, we were so privileged that we could help make the school sports uniform happen and be the first learners to present at the FOSS (Friends of Stonefields School) meeting! That night at the meeting, we presented our Prezi and everyone agreed with us. We should have a sports uniform because of a lot of reasons but our favourite reason is that it will represent our school at races, will look much more smart and will be more comfortable because not all of us have enough good exercise clothing at home.
We got to look at some sample uniforms and are going to be involved in helping to design the uniform and decide which one we get.
We think we need shirts with sleeves for sun protection (and most of FOSS agreed with us) but some people think short sleeves look sportier. What do you think is the best option? and why do you think that?
We are looking forward to hearing from you.
See ya!
Fatima and Dani
I think we should have short sleeves because we might get a shade over us so we don't get sunburned and we'll get less sweatier and colder from being covered less around the shoulders and lot's of the main sports that we do, wear sleeveless shirts.

I don't really mine about our sport uniforms.The sleeves is good so we stay warm if its windy,but if it's sunny the sleeveless shirts would be good so we don't get that hot and sweaty.
ReplyDeleteI really don't mind with what you guys choose but I think that the no sleeve shirt is nice because you won't get as warm as you normal do but the one with sleeves are good because you won't get burnt but I really don't mind with what you want.
ReplyDeleteI think the short sleeves is better looking and we will probably have sunblock on at all times unless nobody's wearing it.I also think the long sleeves is good because you'll have less chance getting sunburn but otherwise i don't really mind
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone,
ReplyDeletefor all your comments and thoughts!
They are all good points but just letting you guys know that the "school sports uniforms" will be around for as long as the school will and we get to decide,Wow that's so awesome!!That's the kind of cool stuff we get to do since we are foundation students!!
You have started a great dialogue Fatima. It looks like a discussion is beginning around the sleeve length of the shirt, short sleeves vs no sleeves. I wonder which people rank as the most important, the length of sleeves or the protection they give from the sun? I think I agree with Meg when she says that the short sleeved shirts look better but I'm also mindful that the decision is going to affect lots of children for years to come. You have an interesting problem to solve!
ReplyDeleteI think short sleeves because if you are having races and you get get sweaty you wont get much sweaty and that's my reason.
ReplyDeleteI think the sleeveless shirts would be better because then you don't get all sweaty
ReplyDeleteGreat feedback for the uniform team, everyone. Those of you who would prefer sleeveless - do you think sunburn might be more of an issue? If so, how might you solve this problem?
ReplyDeleteI think there should be no sleeves on the P.E uniform
ReplyDeleteI think we should have short sleeves because you would get less sweaty
ReplyDeleteI think both because
ReplyDeleteif it's cold we will be freezing to death
and short sleve because on a hot day we would roast alive.

I think short because if it is to cold then we'll be doing it in the hall.
