Every student wears a uniform in paradise, whether in a primay school or a secondary school, and every school has a different uniform. Girls' uniforms come in a rich variety especially. I am showing here in the photos three different uniforms for girls.
Every August, parents face a challenge of preparing proper uniforms for their children for the new school year. With the hot and humid climate here, a child needs at least 3 sets of the uniform so that they can be washed every day, and the costs on parents to get them ready are not cheap. Besides, they don't look very comfortable for a child in this climate. I once asked several teachers and principals why it was that everyone was supposed to wear a uniform and if anybody ever thought about running a school without having one. According to them, uniforms are very important, even indispensable, because they cultivate among students a sense of identification with their school. I wonder how important it is for a student to develop such a sense of identity, but I never hear any complaint about uniforms either, so I suppose everyone likes having them.
