School sports day house T-shirts in Sri Lanka only look good if house colours stay true after monsoon laundry and every year group has a size that fits. This case covers how a primary/secondary school can order house tees without leftover wrong colours or a last-minute scramble.
The brief (example school)
A school needs house tees for four houses × ~60 pupils, plus marshal / teacher polos. Sports day is in six weeks. The PTA wants crest prints that survive weekly PE washes.
What we recommended
- School PE & sports house tees in locked red / blue / green / yellow
- Round-neck tees for pupil kits — print-friendly and cooler for outdoor heats
- Polos for teachers, prefects and marshals
- Approve one crest sample per house colour before the full run
How the order was structured
- Class teachers collected sizes once on a shared sheet
- Each house order included spare stock in the two most common youth sizes for mid-year admissions
- Artwork deadline was set three weeks before sports day
- Delivery went to the school stores — not individual parents — for fair distribution
Colour & laundry reality
House colours must be locked against a physical sample, not a screen swatch. PE kits wash weekly in humid conditions — colourfast dyes matter more than a slightly cheaper ink. Pair this case with the PE kit colours & sizing guide and the school uniform price guide.
Timeline checklist
- Week −6: lock colours + crest artwork
- Week −5: size collection + sample approval
- Week −3: production
- Week −1: school stores receive and sort by house / class
