Commonwealth games.... well i have never heard of it before and also i had no information about it. when i first heard the name 'Commonwealth' in my head i pictured something to do with health and medication, but when the teacher said games i kinda thought of the Olympic Games.

A Debate On "Should Students Get Paid"

“Should Students Get Paid”

Well my opinion is that I disagree, Why? Because the school needs
the money to give to other people out there that need Health
Medication. The reason why I chose this opinion because it’s true.
The school does give money to the people that are in a lot of pain.
E.G if the teachers kept giving us students money we would spend it
on less important things and also the people that are in pain will have
to suffer for a long time. So I disagree about getting paid.

A Letter To Nicolas Lei

Dear Room 3,

My name is Nicolas Lei. I hope you are all well and excited to
start another new year at Pt. England School. This is my first year at Ferguson
Intermediate and I am year 7. I am writing this letter to you all because I know
most of you are a similar age as me and I need your help! Someone told me
that you are a smart group of students, so I look forward to hearing from you.  

As a new student, I am learning a lot of new routines and rules. I am enjoying
my time here, however, there is one thing that I detest and that is our school
uniform! At my old school, we wore mufti which was awesome because I got
to choose what I wanted to wear everyday. Now that I am at Ferguson, I have
to wear the same thing every day like everyone else. It bothers me because I
don’t think it’s fair that I have to wear a school uniform. This makes me want to
move schools.

I know that you wear a school uniform too, right? How do you feel about that?
Do you think all schools should wear uniform? Please tell me why you think
schools should or should not wear uniform so I can make a decision on
whether to stay here at Ferguson or move back to my old school. Please write
back to me soon.

Kind regards,

Nicolas Lei, Year 7

Talofa Lava my name is Trendy. Thank you for sending this letter to me and I would l
ove to help you with the problem that you have at your new school.

My Opinion about hating to wear the same clothes as other people is that I think it’s
very responsible.  My Reason why is because when your whole class or school goes
out on a trip, people will look at you and judge you but in a good way.  Some will
even go to your teacher and compliment your whole school.In Less words everybody
loves to see a school in the same uniform because in there mind they think straight away
that’s a responsible school. You should wear school uniform because it makes your
school look good.

Yours sincerely,

Trendy, Year 7

The Effects That Litter

1. Don’t throw any rubbish on the ground because if everybody kept doing that then the world would be polluted.
2. Littering is bad for the animals.
3. We might die in the future if we keep littering.
4. We will have nothing to eat because all the animals eat anything they see.
5. When people litter and you love to swim you won’t be able to because rubbish goes into the water and pollutes it.
6. Did you know that birds eat anything they see so they eat rubbish that people throw on throw ground.

My Story

Nasty Blasty Burger Van

A little girl named Zoe was starving for a burger (ROAR ROAR)
that was the sound of her tummy. “Im hungry get off your butt
and get a burger can’t you hear me i'm starving” Zoes
tummy said. She was so shocked with fear. “Well hurry up this
tummy can’t feed itself” So she quickly got off the couch,
grabbed some money from the kitchen and ran outside to
the “Delicious Burger Van” well that's what it said on the van.
Zoe quickly ran to the van and order a cheeseburger. He gave
her a burger and Zoe went home she was just about to eat the

but then….. There was a RAT IN THE BURGER. “AHHHH
THERES A RAT IN MY BURGER…….
