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.

Selling, Buying and Selling

26 of October was the day the students of St Pats have had been waiting for since the beginning of term 4. Mission Day.

The purpose of Mission day is for the kids to raise money for an orphanage in India. Us kids do this by collecting money from the stall that we make up(raffles, games, lollies and so much more).

Students all came to school with different types of clothes, because Mission day is Mufti.
When the first bell rang kids ( not including me of course) ran to class to be the early birds at mass which started at 9:00 AM.
Lining up at the parish was chaos with a capital ‘K’, if you know what I mean. After all the kids sat down, Father Roach began his sermon (sermon starting  time 9:00 AM. Sermon ending time 9:40-50 AM).

After the long mass ended we went down to the bottom court for our famous coin trail. It didn’t go as planned because there wasn’t as much coins to fill the whole of the letters. Mrs Bullot announced that the stalls would be starting straight after morning tea.

My group was scheduled to do something called mysteries incorporated but we weren’t so prepared because half of our group decided to go off and do something else, like Tricia was the first to quit as she wanted to sell lollies with Luisa. So I was stuck with selling ‘jack's magic beans’ ,  but it was fun as I shouted really loud and got lots of customers. I was feeling bummed out(because my group didn't do our stall) and happy at the same time because I was selling something.

At the end of the day, rooms 5 and 7 went over to room 8 to watch a movie. I didn’t really watch the movie because I was so exhausted.
After the movie was over, we went over to room 3 and 4 to find the raffle results and I was sure I was going to win but the raffle box didn’t think so.
We finally lined up to go home but I just wanted to sit and sleep, because my day was very big.

My fabulous Mum

My Mum, there are no words to explain what she is like to me and to others. For me, she is everything. From the day I was born and to the day I will die she’ll always be the best thing to me. She will be in my heart and the hearts of those who love her till the day she dies.

She is the most special person on the face of this world.

She is always there for me when I need it most (even when she is super busy).

She is loving to others and does not ask for anything in return.

those are the reasons my mum is so special to me and to others.

Mae, eu te amo ! S2

Something in the water

I recommend "Something In The Water" by the St Patrick's Year 7/8 classes. I loved the concept of the movie and the story line.

It has great humour and an interesting storyline which was very cool. The acting from the kids looked like it belonged in the big screen. Their costume was good made sense, like the swim teacher wearing a Hawaiian shirt. Everybody spoke with confidence which was really good. My rating 5/5. : )
