Should pets be allowed at school? Yes ,i think pets should be allowed at school. Firstly you could have no friends so you could play with your pets and you wouldn’t have to take them for walks.

Secondly they could meow, bark, squeak and so on for the bells!!! Also if you hurt yourself you could get them to fetch a duty teacher!!!

Finally if you had a horse, donkey or camel, they could give the little kids rides and ride them to school. Also if you were learning about you could study them or if you learning about milking cows you could milk a real one!!!Last of they all could comfort you if you were sad and guard you and the school.

That’s why i think pets should be allowed at school!!!

Should kids be paid to go to school?

Should kids be paid to go to school? I think that kids should be paid to go to school and this is why.

Firstly it will make them want to go to school and it will give them pleasure when they do their work. If they do have pleasure they will listen and get good grades. Don’t forget good grades mean good holidays your grandparents that want a break.

Secondly all the schools will get loads of money if you manage to put a rate that parents have to pay the children. Your schools will be liven the life and that means more pay days yay! Still there’s one problem a grumpy principal having to pay the teachers but who cares.

Thirdly all your kids will be able to buy some of your greatest desires.

Your kids won’t miss a thing in those toy stores and the best book in town would be in path your very keen readers. For boys the best Lego towers ever.

That is why I think kids should be paid to go to school.

Should Rats be used as pets? No in my opinion rats should not be kept as pets because......

Firstly they smell very bad let them out the cage and the whole house will smell like garbage. Bugs will come from near and far because of that little pet smell. Plus you might get in trouble for adopting one!!

Secondly if you stick your finger in the cage the rat might bite you. Plus if you hold them they might scratch you with they’re surprisingly long nails!

Last of all rats might escape from they’re cage and break everything precious to you (this might happen a lot). If you keep buying that the rat broke don’t the rat will keep on breaking those things.

Should lollies be allowed at school?

Should lollies be allowed at school? In my opinion yes, because they are very yummy. They are sweet and colourful.

Firstly you could trade them for better stuff like Smiggle. You can also trade for other lollies. For example if you don’t like a lolly you could trade for a lolly that you really like.

Secondly when you are hungry at class time you can eat some lollies from your pockets. You could also freshen up your breath with mints. You could also get some energy from them if you’re playing a rough and tiring sport.

Thirdly and finally they don’t cost much like other things. TNT lollies, Zombie gum and other things are only 10c lollies are the best, they are sweet, yummy and colourful. Lots and lots of lollies are at the dairy stores all around NZ!

That is why teachers should allow students to bring lollies to school.

Should rats be trusted as pets?

Should rats be pets? “NO”! In my opinion I think you shouldn’t have rats because they are dirty and you don’t know where their paws have been.

They will eat things that are on the ground like: soft toys, paper, pens, pencils. They bite as hard as a big croc, there are so many dirty places where rats go like the garbage dump, under the house! Rats are very smart they can get out of cages easily. They will make friends with the rats from under the house and nibble on the cables and there be no TV for days and days. If you find something brown on the ground it’s not chocolate, trust me don’t eat it.

So that’s why you shouldn’t have rats as pets.

Should we wear a uniform?

Should we wear a uniform? I think it’s not.

Firstly we’re not wearing a uniform because it’s hard to find people. And the teacher is not wearing a uniform so the children is thinking like this, “why teacher is not wearing a uniform? So I don’t want to wearing a uniform!”

So children is sad because teacher is not wearing a uniform. Secondly the uniform colour is blue because the sea is blue the uniform is a blue.

Should Tigers be kept as pets?

Should Tigers be kept as pets? YES in my opinion I think Tigers should be kept as pets. If you tame them they’re very friendly.

Firstly if you tame a tiger they’re very friendly and you can snuggle into them at night. They keep you warm and you don’t need a little teddy bear. If you have bad dreams they will keep you company.

Secondly if you’re an only child you can play with them, hunt with them, show them for show ’n tell. When they’re big enough you can ride them and have lunch with them.

Thirdly if you have a pet tiger and you don’t like your steak give it to your tiger and he’ll eat it up. If it’s a girl get her to mate with another tiger and you can play with her sweet little cubs.

So that’s why I think tigers should be kept as pets!

Should Money be real?

Should money be real? Yes I my opinion I think money should be real because what would you get for working and doing your job? There would be heaps of bad things if there was no such thing as money!

Firstly you would probably have to buy things with gold and if you did your job you would only get about the size of an ant head! If you wanted to clothes it would be like 20 pieces of gold just for one sock!

But there is still more to it where would the people from the shop get the clothes they would have to have heaps and heaps and heaps of gold to buy all those clothes and they would of had to buy the shop which would be heaps and heaps and heaps and heaps of gold more than you could imagine!!!

Secondly you would need a house and it would probably take you 1 year to get that much money you have to also have to work nonstop you would get really hungry and really thirsty it would make you tired too. It would be better having money than gold.

That’s why money should be real.

Should rats be kept as pets?

Should rats be kept as pets? NO I don’t think so at all. Rats are dirty and very smelly creatures worst off all they spread are diseases that other animals and people can get.

Firstly because rats would have to be kept in cages very small ones and some would maybe be able to get through the cage bars and poo all over the floor. So if you see some chocolate on the floor think again.

Another reason you should not keep rats as pets is because they are so noisy mostly in the night . If you your lying in bed and you hear a rip coming from the couch you might need to buy some more cushions and if they’re brand new and you see a rip through them it will be the rats fault.

The third reason is that some people say that rats would be good company but they’re wrong the rat will not even come near you unless it’s getting angry because you forget to feed it. Rats won’t just come and sit on your lap and start purring like a cat. But it might sit on your lap and rip your t-shirt in half! So that is why I think you should not keep a rat as a pet.

Should we wear uniform?

Should we wear uniform? Yes I think this is a good idea. Firstly because Campbell’s Bay School children go to the picnic Campbells bay uniform is the same and teachers look the children and children wear school uniform teacher think ‘ah they ate Campbells Bay School.

Secondly Campbell’s Bay School uniform colour is blue and black. Why uniform colour blue? I think Campell’s Bay School filled and look the front and you see the sea and uniform colour is blue and blue colour is clean colour and black uniform is look like not dirty because I think black colour is very strong.

Thirdly different primary school children wear uniform but Campbell’s Bay School children not wear uniform I think very strange.

SHOULD SCHOOL UNIFORMS BE COMPuLSoRY?

Should school uniforms be compulsory? No, i think kids should be allowed to wear whatever they like because it shows your personality.

Firstly it is boring wearing the same clothes every day and it is unfair because teachers get to wear whatever they want to wear. The school is now is blue and yellow with the uniforms and mostly everyone hates the uniform.

Secondly they go smelly after a while like a day if you get sweaty and we have to wear black or blue shoes. It is hard to find your friends with the uniform and the school is mostly blue with the uniform but the parents like the uniform when we hate it.

Thirdly you could wear your uniform out then you would have to by another uniform and the socks are ugly and the uniform is cold even the jumper the uniform is very expensive and everyone gets bored with the uniform the uniform should be a law.

Should we be able to have rats as pets?

Should we be able to have rats as pets? YES, I think we should be able have rats as pets.

Firstly, if you don’t have a brother or sister they can keep you company by doing their amusing tricks of back flips, spins and so on. They can also make you happy when you’re sad.

Secondly, some specially bred rats can clean themselves unlike dogs and fish tanks that actually need an actual scrub.

Finally, they are cute and cuddly and don’t do much business.

So take my word that’s why I think rats could be good pets.

Why should school uniform be compulsory?

Because the teachers don’t know how to see you because kids are all blue uniform and they cost too much money, you can buy something else.

Secondly, you hate to wear the same clothes every day and the uniform will get smelly and that is yucky and people lose stuff like shoes and clothes.

Thirdly you never know where people go and that it is hard to find me.

Should we have to wear a school uniform?

Should we have to wear a school uniform? No they should not have to wear a school uniform it’s for losers and geeks! It makes it even worse when you have to wear a school uniform.

Firstly the prices are unbelievable! $100 dollars just for polar fleece. That’s out of the question! And all that other riff raff.

Secondly wearing your own clothes shows your personality. And people want their school uniform to be bright and colourful. Not dull and boring.

Thirdly clothes getting mixed up they have to put it in the day sheet and everything like that. Like my friend Sammy, she lost her shoes and she still has not found them.

Fourthly there unbelievably itchy! I mean who likes an itchy school uniform? It’s itchy and uncomfortable. It also shows your knickers. I know schools have tried to prevent that but it still happens.

That’s why I think we should not have to wear a school uniform.

SHOULD AUCKLAND BUILD A NEW RECLAIMED ISLAND?

Should Auckland build a new reclaimed island? Yes, In my opinion there should be a new reclaimed island near Rangitoto Chanel for people to live and observe as ships go past in and out from the harbour.

Firstly, a small islands cost around half a million dollars. And the more people that buy a home, they the more can extend the island! And maybe form a village, then a town! It also will be expensive to live there because of view on the ships.

Secondly, There cold be shops and other things to buy from. A ferry transports the people to the island to a ferry terminal. The people that live there have a free ticket for the ferry. The people that don’t live there have to pay the ticket.

Thirdly, things will be cheaper there so they don’t complain. Then more people will come to the island. There will be doctors and dentists and shops and restaurants. A sailing dock and club and lots of homes of different shapes and sizes!

In my opinion: I think Auckland should build a new Reclaimed Island!

Should pets be allowed at School ?

Should pets be allowed at school? Yes ‘cause firstly pets might want to see there owners. Secondly people might miss there pets and if there pet is a cat they might want to stroke there cat for a while but if there pet is a dog they might want to play catch.

Thirdly people adore cats and dogs one reason pets all types are cute and cuddly. Sometimes they aren’t cute and cuddly like other pets.

We should have pets at school cats should come to school to eat and kill rats. Some people are scared of rats and want them dead. I don’t really like them.
