The document discusses the process of designing new uniforms for Thomas Tallis School. A team conducted workshops with students, teachers, and parents to gather input on priorities. These included visibility, distinctiveness from other schools, warmth, and easy care. Designers then developed concepts incorporating these priorities, including customizable polo shirts with printed campaign colors and jacket options. The concepts were intended to reflect the school's values while being practical and affordable.

The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come. So, let us embrace the beauty and mystery of bats, and celebrate their unique place in our world.

environmental issue?
•How to engage future wearers of the uniforms, in say, year 2020?

35. Initial idea to be able to customise uniform by the student being able to choose their own colour shirt from a range of colours
Issue 1: Would be much more expensive as the shop would have
to keep all different colours in different sizes as well
Monday, 7 March 2011
36. Issue 2 : It works well with darker colour, however...
Monday, 7 March 2011
43. Taking inspiration from the Meridian 0º, the shirts would come with a print
and every year, as the school runs campaigns such as read 1 book a month...
Monday, 7 March 2011
44. Students would select their campaign for the year, which will correspond with one colour;and this colour will be printed in their shirt
Monday, 7 March 2011
45. And for every year passing, a new campaign will be selected, and a new colour will be printed allowing for
small meaningful customisations,

46. Engaging with school activities.. whilst the uniform reflects their academic year by the amount of grids filled with colour
Monday, 7 March 2011
47. A classic style with a modern twist, slightly reminds of a tie, bringing that element of smart in a humorous, contemporary way
Monday, 7 March 2011
48. •allows for different years being distinctive
•allows for customisation, student chooses campaign and therefore colour
•allows for engagement and feeling of ownership of future students of Thomas Tallis
•allows for cheaper production, as we would use a standard polo shirt and customize it through print
Monday, 7 March 2011
49. Taking into account the feedback from the workshops, a medium weight jersey cardigan has been designed to allow for easy
access into garment and with generous pockets. It has printed ‘lapels’ for that humorous take on suits.
Monday, 7 March 2011
50. A sleeveless woven jacket that again, plays with the idea of lapel by using it’s negative space.
The lapel mirrors the printed lines in the cardigan.
This garment would allow for extra warmth on winter days, whilst allowing for freedom of movement with the lack of sleeves
Monday, 7 March 2011
51. it works better when the cardigan underneath is of a different colour, and it would make better sense for
production as colour matching from different suppliers can be very difficult
Monday, 7 March 2011
52. If we were to chose the grey shade, we would have to add
reflective tape to the garment to make sure students are safe
and visible in the streets.
A generous pocket has been designed on the back, inspired
by cycling jackets.
Monday, 7 March 2011
53. It also works well when worn without the cardigan underneath
Monday, 7 March 2011
54. Another option would be to have a hood incorporated, to allow for protection on rainy days.
Even though it is a hoodie, it looks smart.
Monday, 7 March 2011
55. A different sleeveless jacket has been designed for the hooded version. This one has a sort of lapel, but
is created by the fold back of the centre front.
Monday, 7 March 2011
56. All custom made garments have been designed with cost effectiveness in mind, so that the manufacturing
part will not be expensive, details and cutting are simple. The fabrics should also be machine washable.
Monday, 7 March 2011
57. Jeans....it would be lovely, but would cost quite a bit more, we could use the
Thomas Tallis logo for the pocket details. Otherwise the uniform would work quite
nice with standard grey or black trousers.
Monday, 7 March 2011
72. How do we retire the old uniform so as
not to create an even bigger
environmental issue?
Creating an event (s) that would become a collective
piece of art inviting the local community to join in
whilst customising the old uniforms ready to be donated
to a good cause.
