My speech

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Imagine all those other things we could do instead of going to school

I strongly believe that Friday at School should be Optional.  Do you Think Fridays At School Should Be Optional ?  Well I am going to convince you right now.


When I grow up I want to be a dairy farmer. We all need time to learn how To do what we want to do when we grow up, so l need Fridays to learn how to farm properly. Weekends are just not enough!  If I was to make money, Dairy farming. I could work 12 hours every Friday. I get paid $9 an hour And if I worked on Fridays for 12 hours I could earn $108.  If I did this every week it would be about  $5,600 a Year. Sounds good to me



Having a break from school can be very relaxing. But this is what the weekends are for. If Fridays at school were optional, then if you weren't at school, you would need to be having a productive day elsewhere. If people thought you were having a lazy 3-day weekend they would probably get  jealous. Even though you are not at school on Fridays it doesn't mean that you stop learning. 



Imagine all the exercise that you could do if you had  Friday off. Exercise is Important for your body for many reasons. It keeps you fit, which helps with your heart and muscles. It helps to keep your blood flowing. Being fit means that you can help do jobs better because you have more energy. Exercise can also help you to feel better in your mind. If I had Fridays off I would run down the driveway, ride my bike and play rugby.  These activities keep me fit.



When kids have Fridays off it can make it easier for the teachers, Because having 28 students in your  class can be very annoying. (I know because I am in my Mum’s class and sometimes I annoy her) Also if the teachers can get A day off School So why don't we?  


Some things you Can do on your extra day off, would be learning outside, hunting, fishing and motorbike riding.  All of these things can teach you important skills.  For example you learn how to control pests when you are hunting, you also learn about the environment and what different plants are called.  Fishing can teach you skills like tying knots and It teaches you how to be a survivor and live on the seafood you collect.   


These are the Reasons Fridays at school should be optional. Thank you for listening to my speech
