BISH Dress Code 2018/2019 BISH Dress Code 2018/2019 BISH Dress Code Why do we have a dress code? At the British International School of Houston, we believe that our dress code helps us in creating a school identity, developing our school community, and promoting our school’s core values: Pride, Unity, and Respect. Pride: Wearing the Nord Anglia logo or the BISH Bulldog develops pride in being a member of our school community. When out of school, on trips, it provides our students with an easily recognizable identity. Additionally, it invites students to take pride in their appearance. Unity: Provides a sense of community and unity among same-age peers. Respect: Reduces the possibility of social conflict associated with appearance and increases students’ respect for each other’s character and abilities. Why do we have Spirit Day? Spirit Day takes place every Friday and is an extension of our regular dress code. On Spirit Days we celebrate different aspects of our community by wearing school Spirit wear. Spirit Day aims to bring together our students of all ages and unites the school through our “Bulldog Pride”. Where do I purchase my child’s school wear?

    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW OF THE STUDY 1.1 INTRODUCTION Members of a specific group or organisation have their own beliefs, behaviours and traditions which provide important information about the group‟s socialising functions (Kaiser 1998:351). The clothes that people wear and their modes of dress are important clues in acquiring specific knowledge about the wearers. Clothing symbols are not stagnant and take on different meanings, depending on when, where and how the clothes are worn (Marshall, Jackson, Stanley, Kefgen & Touchie-Specht 2000:5). Therefore, school uniforms are an excellent example of information that is conveyed about the learners and the schools they attend. A school uniform represents the school which the learner attends, and signals meanings about the values, beliefs, ethics, traditions and general image which the school maintains, as well as the discipline sustained (Kaiser 1997:226-227). The adoption of a school uniform enables people to observe and monitor the behaviour of the wearer of the uniform (Craik 2005:52, Kaiser 1997:589). Are uniforms then a good idea? A more detailed discussion of advantages and disadvantages of school uniforms follow in section 2.5, but a brief introduction on this aspect will be given here. The most logical response to this well known question is that nobody knows but at present supporters of school uniforms argue that uniforms serve as a social and economic equaliser, diminishing competition regarding clothing and reducing demands on parents to buy expensive, trendy clothes. It also advances learners safety as officials can recognise intruders who come into the school grounds.

  • Fall 2020 Look Book Dear Friends
    Fall 2020 Look Book Dear Friends, We are going through a unique period in history, not only for us as Canadians but for humanity. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted each one of us, changed how we live, how we behave and how we interact with each other. Yet, what has been encouraging through this time, is how so many Canadians have stepped up and volunteered to help those in need. It epitomizes what being a Canadian is all about. Here at KING & BAY, we too experienced the generosity of our fellow Canadians. Our clients stepped up by donating over 700 shirts to our SOYB Facemask Challenge. Meanwhile, our sta at KING & BAY along with a team of community sewers produced and donated over 15,000 facemasks to those in need. We are so grateful to our clients and colleagues for doing their part in supporting Canadians and being exemplary citizens. As we move into the Fall, and days more promising, we are pleased to share our new collection for Fall 2020. The aim of the collection is to inspire optimism in the future, to transport us beyond the confines of the pandemic to a time when life is less complicated. As you look through our collection please know that we have taken all the necessary precautions, following all government COVID-19 protocols, to create a safe space for you to visit us in our private lounge. Alternatively, if you feel more inclined to shop from the convenience of your home, we would like to introduce to you our Virtual Style portal which allows you to have a virtual consultation with one of our Master Clothiers.
