Changing School Hours


The idea of altering the time of starting school for intermediate students should be changed, in fact made earlier is in my opinion, as an intermediate student absolutely preposterous!


If school began at 8:30, (for me this would be ten minutes earlier than my current start time) what could be gained from this? Ten minutes a day, would that make much difference in a child's academic achievement? while I realised that that compounded ten minutes would end up being 50 minutes across a school week, those 50 minutes would actually have to be divided into a full week. So again I ask you would ten minutes make a difference in a intermediate childs learning?


A lot of students in my school catch the bus. Some of them get here just in time for the bell to ring. If they don’t have a bus that leaves around 20 minutes before 8:30 the child will be late to school.
Do you want your child to get to school late?
If I had a child I know that him/her coming late to school would affect their learning.

School Rubbish


At schools we see a lot of rubbish, Most people just throw it onto the ground and forget about reusing, reducing, recycling and throw rubbish. Do you put it in the bin or do you just throw it anywhere you want to? children don’t help out either. They just throw their rubbish on the floor at school. I think from now on children should take home their rubbish

Imagine yourself living on Earth in about 50 years time.
The world is so polluted only the rich can afford to buy a home on a space shuttle that keeps them away from pollution. You aren’t rich so you have to live on the wasteland planet also known as Earth.
Do you want that do happen to Earth? I know I DEFINITELY don’t!
Have you watched the movie Wall-E? That’s what Earth will look like if we keep polluting our beloved Earth.

Cleaners go to schools often, but not often enough to eliminate rubbish. They have a tough job cleaning schools because we don’t care for our school environment!
When the cleaner comes from time to time there will be so much rubbish built up that the day after he cleans the school, it will be dirty again!
That is why I firmly agree that kids taken home their rubbish should be a rule in all schools throughout the world!

My great persuasive essay


Jobs, we all think differently about it. Some say they hate it, others appreciate it. Well this is my way of thinking about jobs.
Some jobs have the privilege of working outside, others have the chance to work in a car or office. But here is my view on jobs.
I think every child my age(12/13 years old) should get a holiday job. Something that’s appropriate, like handing out pamphlets.
It’s good for you, I know from past experiences.

Working the long hours is worth it. Getting that papery cash or getting that instant credit to your account(if you’re an adult of course).

A holiday job is good to keep fit during the holidays. I state this because I know a number of boys and girls that are still in primary school or  have just started college stay at home being lazy. Having a job could be beneficial in a number of ways, at the very  least, it will get you out of bed earlier  and will keep you active during work hours.

This is why I firmly think kids aged 12-13 should get a holiday job.
