Pt England uniform upgrade news article

 
                                         Uniform Upgrade


Pt England School
Ariana

The year seven and eights are wearing different school uniform to the juniors so they can distinguish them from all the juniors.

Some years ago some of the year sevens and eight got to pick what they wanted the jackets to look like. Mrs Flavell the minister of the uniform says that 98% of the intermediate children have a school jacket. They have also done a poll amongst them. They knew the colours they had to stick with wore black and red.    

Why do the year seven and eight get to wear different school uniform? We have asked one of the schools staff about what they think about this change. She has told us that it is “to distinguish the senior children from everybody else.”

A black zip that runs down the middle, with a red Pt England logo embossed on the top side and you can not forget the long black sleeves that make it a jacket.That is what the $55.0 jacket looks like. For the girls there is culottes. There's also a black bucket hat for both genders.

WALT: use the structure of newspaper articles to write my own article.
