uniform

Mrs Trotter I think we should have a school uniform but change it so we don't have to worry about what clothes to wear for school it should not be hot and thick so on a hot day we don’t have headaches in class but the polar fleece has to be warm and thick so we don't freeze and get colds and then we won’t be able to go to school then we won't be able to learn. They are uncomfortable and that will change if we change our school uniform.

We want to change the colours because the colours on our school uniforms are too bold and make us too hot in the summer time.The school uniform should be light and not heavy. We should have a school so we represent our school and be proud to be an oaklands student. And then when we go on camps they will know that we are oaklands school students.So Do you think we should have a school uniform like these?

WALT:understand how the Olympic values have been demonstrated in `Rio
SC: I will be able to give a minimum of one example of an Olympic Value being shown in Rio.

RIO DE JANIERO 2016 running accident. An American runner and a New Zealand runner fell over during their race and they helped each other up. They demonstrated the respect values and friendship. Because of this awesome show of friendship, both of them made it to the final.

the nz flag Referendum

WALT: stretch our writing to 3 paragraphs

In NZ there is a Referendum about a new flag & an old flag.

In a Referendum people vote about the subject to get it or not .

In this the flags are the subject.

some people think that we change the flag because we are no

longer a british colony and we want to be an independent republic .

but other people want to keep the flag because 31,330 died under it

and it is fine how it is.

I think that we should change the flag because we are not a british colony

and it is more interesting
