My opinion letter to Newshub

Kia Ora, my name is Bijou. I’m an year 7 at Otaki College. I live in Otaki as you can probably tell.
I like playing sports. I’m writing to you about my opinion on ‘Can you get it in the bin?’

People are getting very lazy. They don’t realise what they are doing to the world there killing animals,
Trashing beaches, lakes and rivers. People are leaving rubbish a metre away from the bins.
'Can you put it in the bin?.

This is not ok! Do people realise what they are doing to this world. It’s more older people who are
influencing younger kids. It’s a bad habit and it is continuing we need to stop this as soon as we can.

If you think about it every time you chuck one piece of rubbish your killing one animal and hurting waters.
Take notice! Lets stop this, If we do it will be an amazing environment.
We are all in this together kia kaha!.

Have a great day, Bijou.

Learning from home!

My letter to Jacinda Ardern

Dear Jacinda Ardern,My name is Bijou. I am a student at a college in a beautiful, little town called Otaki. I wanted to write to you to thank, recognise and let you know what a great leader you are.

Firstly,Thank you. If it wasn't for your leadership we wouldn't be doing so well with Covid-19, You have had to make so many tough decisions but we are grateful for what you did. Thank you for opening up the takeaway shops because I really like Mcdonalds, Kfc, Burger King and all the other food shops!

I recognise you for putting us in lockdown that was a hard thing to do. I know you must have put in some very long hours and worked very hard.

You are a good leader. You were always positive, confident and open to all questions. You are always organised.

Have a good rest of the day, Bijou :)
