Should we be allowed to have lollies at school?Dear Mrs Doherty,
I believe that lollies should not be brought to school. Here are the reasons. Firstly, you can get fat. Secondly, people might chuck their wrappers down the drain. Thirdly, people will get sick. So please don’t let your year fives and sixes bring lollies to school.
Yours sincerely,
Anthony
should we have lollies at school?Dear Mrs Doherty,
I believe that you should not bring lollies to school. Firstly, it can make you fat because of the sugar. Also you won’t be able to fit in the car to come to school. Secondly the lollies can get stuck in your throat if you are running with a lolly in your mouth. You may die because you won’t have enough food because of the lollies. Thirdly , it will kill your learning because of all the sugar. So that is why you should not let the year fives and sixes bring lollies to school.
Yours truly,
Charlotte
Should we have lollies at school?Dear Mrs Doherty,
I believe that lollies should not be brought to school! Firstly, you can get fat and you won’t be able to walk properly. Secondly you might get sick of sugar. If you get sick of sugar you will have to stay at home and then you won’t learn anything. Lastly, if you eat too many lollies you can get very sick. Mrs Doherty, please don’t let the year fives and sixes bring lollies to school.
Yours truly,
Jay
Should we have lollies at school?Dear Mrs Doherty,
I dare you to have lollies at school!
This is why I want lollies at school.
Firstly, yummy, I’m going to eat them. Secondly I love them. If we eat lollies we will get sick and don’t need to go to school. So please let lollies at school.
Yours truly,
Josh
Should we have lollies at school?Dear Mrs Doherty,
I do not believe that lollies should be allowed at school. Firstly, your teeth will fall out because of the sugar. Secondly you will get fat because of the lollies. Thirdly, people will want to share lollies because they are yum. I hope no one brings lollies to school.
Yours truly,
Jacob
Should lollies be allowed at school?Dear Mrs Doherty,
I believe it would be a bad idea to have lollies at school even though the year fives and sixes say yes. Here are some reasons why I think this way.
Firstly, if children eat too many lollies they will get rotten teeth which means you will have to wear false teeth. Secondly, if you eat too many lollies you will forget your learning and you won’t get a job. Thirdly, if you are running around with a lolly you will choke because they will get stuck in your throat.
So please Mrs Doherty ban lollies from school.
Yours truly,
Isabella
Room 14’s Persuasive WritingWritten by Stacey
Topic: Should we feed the ducks at Hobsonville Primary School?
In my opinion ducks shouldn’t be here. They are here because the old caretaker used to leave food behind him when he walked around the school.
Firstly, if you have food with glad wrap around it the ducks might choke or suffocate if you leave your rubbish on the ground.
Secondly, if you shut the door and you don’t see that there is a duck down by the door, it might get a broken wing or a broken leg.
Thirdly, ducks steal our food a lot when we are eating outside.
Finally, if the ducks share your food, you might get sick if you eat it after them.
Ducks shouldn’t be here!

Topic: Should we feed the ducks at Hobsonville Primary School?
I disagree we shouldn’t feed the ducks at school. There are ducks living on the field.
Firstly, if you put wrapping on your sandwiches and the ducks eat it they will choke and die.
Secondly, if we eat what they have bitten we will get duck germs and they will get sick.
Thirdly, they come inside the classroom and when you scare them they just come back.
Finally, ducks are just mean.
Stop feeding the ducks at school.

Topic: I should win a trip to Disneyland because I’m the best kid in the world.
Personally, I think the best kid in the world should go to Disneyland.
Firstly, I’m good at home. I wash the clothes. I’m going to wash the windows on the outside and the dishes inside.
Secondly, I’m good at sports. I go to the swimming pools to practise being the best in the world. I am good at Gym during school time.
Thirdly, I am good at learning. I like the times tables and reading super fast like adults.
Finally, “I hope she will win the trip because she’s kind.” said Jacqueline. I have to go to Disneyland and because I just gave you all those reasons why.

Topic: We should have pets at school. Which pet would you bring and why?
I agree that we must have pets. I must bring a seal to school because I will have fun with a seal.
Firstly, I would like to see a seal playing with a ball. I must teach the seal to clap.
Secondly, the seal could teach me how to swim under the water in the swimming pool. I might ride on the seal.
Another reason why is that I could ride the seal under the water to school. The seal would be very quiet in the classroom.
Finally, when a seal was the swimming teacher, the children could swim.
So these are examples of why I must bring a baby seal to school.
Room 15's chicken writingFirst of all, it might make a mess by going toilet and the cleaner might not be able to get it out.
Secondly, they might get scared because they might not like it where they are.
Thirdly, they might have too many babies and we won’t be able to look after them all.
Lastly, it might eat all your work so you have to start again.
So you will regret getting a chicken when you end up having to do all the work.

Should we have chickens in room 15?
We should not have chickens in room 15.
Firstly, it could break windows or other school property so we would get in trouble.
Secondly, they are very noisy, way too silly and attract attention so we would have to stay in at lunch time because we wouldn’t get our work done.
Thirdly, some kids don’t like chickens and would hurt them by pulling their feathers out.
If you listened to me you won’t get a chicken. But if you didn’t listen you will have a lot chaos heading your way.
By Cameron
Should we have a pet chicken in room 15?
We should not have a pet chicken in room15.
Firstly, it will smash into the window because it can’t get outside.
Secondly, Miss Yap will be furious because the chicken will destroy everything because it will fly everywhere.
Thirdly, it will poo everywhere as a consequence of not being able to get outside in time.
So do you want to suffer the consequence of having chickens in class?
By Grace F
Should we have a pet chicken in our class?
We should definitely not be able to have a pet chicken in our class!
Firstly, they will be noisy so everyone will look at them and we will not be able to hear our teacher.
Secondly, they will bump into things so feathers will go everywhere and as a consequence it will make a mess.
Thirdly, people will hurt them so they will chase us.
So do you want your classroom to be chaos?
By Kaya
Should we have chickens at school?
We must not have chickens at school!
First of all, they could rip your work so you’ll have to start all over again and get annoyed.
Secondly, they might lay eggs and that means there will be chickens running around.
Thirdly, they will leave muddy footprints and the cleaner will get annoyed with them.
So, if you want to bring chickens to class your life will be filled with misery.
