My Speech

I think that Lawrence Area School should not have a pet because they poop everywhere and need lots of love and attention that we don’t always have time to give them.  Also some kids might be allergic and would spend all day sneezing while we are trying to work.  

Some pets can be quite annoying.  They jump all over you and leave their fur everywhere. They would want to be patted while you were working and they would slobber all over our stuff.  Imaging trying to use a chromebook that had dog dribble all over it.  YUCK.

We couldn’t leave our lunch boxes lying around as they would steal our food and nobody wants hungry kids. Animals poop everywhere and Mr Healy and Ali would have to clean it up, they already have to clean up yucky stuff like kids spew and that is bad enough.

Then comes the question of who would feed them.  It might be okay during the week as there would be lots of volunteers at school but who would do it after school and on the weekends?  Paying for the food would be expensive and might mean Mrs May didn’t have any money left to buy Freddo Frogs for our class or new paint brushes and scissors. Nobody wants that.

Then comes the school holidays and who is going to look after this pet then?  It would have to go home with somebody which would be a massive responsibility or it would have to stay at school and someone would have to go and feed it every day.  What a pain.  Not to mention the fact that it could get run over or killed staying with someone else. The pet might get very lonely in the school holidays without all of the school children around.

Pets are a lot of hard work and we already have to work really hard at school.  I don’t think that we should get a pet that will poop, dribble and mess up the school and cost lots of money. I think pets are for families at their home, definitely not for schools.

Swimming Reflection

Hide and seek

I was banging my head and prickles were stabbing me. The wind was blowing in my face. I could hear them coming closer and closer. I  could smell the musty tree that were surrounding me. I was trying not to be loud. My heart was pounding very fast. All I could see was wood. I could hear the kids run to find a hiding spot. At the end I got found.
