Persuasive Letter

Dear Mr Hendricks

Should lunchtime be shortened?

I think that we shouldn't reduce our lunchtime to half an hour. The reasons are because it is  boring at home and I can learn something after lunchtime.  

Firstly, it’s boring at home because I always have to look after my younger siblings and I find it really boring just sitting on the couch and watching out for the little ones. I’d rather stay at school to learn and play fun games with my friends. Obviously there is no point of shortening our lunchtime.

Secondly, you can still learn something fun after lunchtime like art and topic study. Everyone likes art and topic study so why should we shorten our lunchtime to ½ an hour because the teachers can still teach something after lunchtime.

In conclusion, for the above reasons, I believe that our lunchtime should not be shortened.

Yours sincerely

Camille

On the 15th of October 2015 at 9:15 am there will be something happening. It’s a national earthquake drill happening all around New Zealand. This drill is a practise to all people in New Zealand to take the right action during the earthquake. So when there is a real earthquake people in New Zealand would know what to do.

Serving breakfast

At sports camp some people got to serve breakfast to the other schools. I was serving peaches and yogurt. Most people went for the peaches but not the yogurt. I really enjoyed serving breakfast at sports camp.
