Boys in the 1970s wear turtle necks and "T" shirts. Jeans, stripped pants, and flares were popular. Sneakers became very stylish. Many boys wore their hair long in the 70s. Most boys wear long pants, even in primary school. We see some boy wearing polyester sports jackets and wide ties. Short skirts became popular with the girls. The girl sat on the table edge is wearing real short pant with over-the-knee-socks. This clothing appeared in 70s and many female adults liked them as an alternative to the mini-skirt which was all the rage at the time. They were called "hotpants". Only the firls wore shorts, the boys all wore long pants. As you can see in the image here, the pupils are playing musical instruments of their own. Good for developing creativity.
