Screen printing has long been a popular choice for the end-of-year t-shirt or rugby. 

Traditionally, the students design a front image (usually as part of the Creative Arts Curriculum or an in-school competition) and we transfer this image onto the screen for printing.

On the back of the t-shirt is a list of names, whether arranged neatly or randomly placed, signifying the students who completed the year. The teachers usually get a look in - whether comically or serious - with the year and the class name. 

Different schools choose to emphasis different aspects of the year group but the most popular has easily been the "We're out of here" theme. That is, "Let's kiss this school goodbye and move forward to the future" - more or less!

I don't think the creativity of the design is what matters, nor what order the names are in - it is simply that you can get a t-shirt to signify the completion of one part of your life - something to say, "That's right, I've made it... and I got this t-shirt!"
