debates

Today we were debating  – Should we put on school uniform?

And this is what Olivia said – ‘get more pencil skirts’.

Others thought:

It makes you a part the team.

 You look the same – its boring.

School uniform is dull  .

Its so uncomfortable , it’s itchy .

Its’ not neat .

It would be nice to wear some thing different for a change.

You don’t have to worry about picking out  clothes for school.

Harder to get lost on a trip if you are in school uniform .

Makes you look more like the team.

Every body looks the same .

 If on a school trip to know your a part of a team .  Repreasents your school.

Own clothes would be wrecked .

Takes longer to choose own clothes.

Miss Dale asked why looking the same or feeling part of the team might be important. Braiden said that sometimes people could get bullied because others didn’t like them – like football strips and supporting different teams.

Others thought that as this didn’t happen at Holywood we should be allowed to not wear uniform. Miss Dale was not persuaded and instead suggested that we have some non uniform days. Keira suggested that we should have a day when boys dressed as girls and girls dressed as boys. Most thought this was a fun idea.

Axel felt very strongly about not liking school uniform and tried to get his group to write more negatives than positives but a good debate looks at both sides of the arguement or question. Axel and his group went back to their discussion and wrote down all the suggestions and views.
