Dear Mr Hendricks


Should we shorten our lunchtime break?

I think that you should shorten our lunchtime break so that we children can have more enjoyment with our friends or family. The reason why I help my family a lot so that I can get more time to play around with my cousins.  


Firstly, I would like to share my ideas with my family or friends and see what I learned in school with other students. I enjoy learning new words and new strategies in maths but mostly when the bell rings when it’s morning tea break.


Secondly at home I’m always bored because I don't have anyone to play with.. Playing by myself wasn’t easy than I thought since my sister stayed in the islands when we left last week Friday. When I left I thought about the lunch breaks, I said to myself “Maybe we should change the rules for the lunch breaks,” I spoke. .


Lastly, I got back to learn new things about the new strategies and the new words in each subject.


In conclusion, for the above reasons, I believe that you should shorten our lunchtime breaks or make it a little bit longer.

Yours sincerely
Megan

Talofa Lava Megan,
I think our lunchtime should be shortened so we can spend more time with our families. But it is weird because I also think our lunchtime should not be shortened because then we can spend more time with friends and education.
