2. Wear the correct Tamaki College Uniform

Uniforms tell you not only that a person belongs to a certain group but also that person has skills other people don’t. A police officer is only allowed to wear this uniform if he/she has completed specific training. A nurse is only allowed to wear this uniform if they have completed nursing school. You wouldn’t ask a police officer to stitch a cut on your arm and you wouldn’t ask a nurse to arrest someone.

At Tamaki College, students are responsible when they wear their school uniform properly throughout the day.

Below are five reasons to wear the correct school uniform at Tamaki College. Rank them in order from most important (1) to least important (5) Place a number beside each.
