When I grow up…

Many years ago when I was a small boy, I had big dreams. I loved space, and I dreamed that one day I could be an astronaut and walk in space. I wanted to see the moon and the stars and explore the galaxy. I read a lot of books about space and I was amazed by the bright colours and beautiful shapes. But, I couldn’t be an astronaut because I get travel sick very easily, so I don’t think I would be very good in a spaceship. What do you want to be when you grow up?



I know a lot of students want to become a fashion designer when they grow up. Everyone wears clothes every day and each piece of clothing you wear was designed by someone. The socks on your feet and the hat on your head all started as a drawing on a piece of paper.



To become a fashion designer you need to be:
  • ·         Creative
  • ·         Good at drawing
  • ·         Good with colours
  • ·         Good with fabric
  • ·         Have a good knowledge of clothes
  • ·         Very hard working!


It is not easy to be a fashion designer, and you need to do a lot of work. But never stop dreaming! If you believe in yourself, then you can do it!

What can I do now?

There are many things you can do to help you become a fashion designer.

  • ·         Keep thinking of new clothes.
  • ·         Keep a sketch book of all your drawings, good or bad!
  • ·         Look at different clothes, in books, on the internet, in shops, and all around you.
  • ·         Ask other people to look at your drawings, they will tell you if you can do better.
  • ·         Practise in your free time.
  • ·         Never give up!

You can start to be a fashion designer by entering this month’s competition. The competition is to design your own school uniform! Here are some examples I have designed. If you are from Upper Primary, you must write about your uniform to win! 



Think about what colours and shapes you can use! Enter the competition by the 9th April 2014 for a chance to win a prize. Good luck!

We are looking for something special! You can be as crazy as you want! 


Remember to leave me a comment! Tell me what you want to be when you grow up!

  42. Hi Mr. Chapman, I’m William Law from 6C. I have known that your dream career is to be an astronaut. Although it’s a cool and meaningful job, it’s not easy to become an astronaut. You need to pass a lot of tests. In order to pass these tests, you need to be strong, brave, intelligent etc.
    I want to be an inventor when I grow up. It’s because I am interested in science and I would like to invent new and useful things to improve our lives and contribute to the society. I think this is a meaningful and interesting job.

    Hi Mr Chapman! Your dream job is very meaning and exciting but it is difficult to come ture. Although lots of my classmates want to be a doctor, I want to be a lawyer. It's because being a lawyer can help people living in a peaceful place. It is as meaningful as an astronaut! I know lawyer is not a easy job so I will be hard working from now on.

If I become a police officer, I will investigate cases, fight crimes and protect people and thier property. I need to be strong and fit, and also be smart and outgoing so that I can be a police officer. Anyway, I am sure I can become a remarkable policewoman in the future.
