Joaquin and Mavis - Our Persuasive Writtings

For our persuasive writing we had to persuade people whether yes we are or no we aren't responsible for our rubbish. First of all we had to decide our position, our position in this argument was yes, we are responsible for the rubbish we create. 

I hope you enjoy reading our persuasive writing

Dear Fellow Peers

Through the years I have witnessed days, weeks, months and obviously years of littering. Child after child, litter after litter and rubbish truck after rubbish trucks.Do you want nothing? Go ahead keep littering!  If we keep on littering  our chances of having an emerald green country and school will diminish like ice over howling fire. Do you wanna spend the rest of you life savings on on your back because you’ve been bending over pick up 50 pieces of rubbish a day? Well we here to stick out to you like a fin on top of water.We are responsible for our litter!  We might even be influenced by the older generation who hit the school with a smashing impact.

Why do I believe we were influenced? We have siblings, cousins and many more relatives people! Our mind is contaminated with laziness as day in and day out we sit on our butts and throw litter on the ground. Do you expect it to disappear with a puff of smoke!? No!! Nothing will happen like that it’s way out of the way of possibility. We were influenced due to the environment we grew up clearly gave us the indication of “ littering is OK  The caretaker is surely to pick it up!” We am now year seven and eight students and suddenly we've realised we've got a sickening problem that shouldn't of even existed in the first place.


This could possibly affect our school reputation with a destructive hit . You say your too cool to pick it up throw it in the bin? Hmmm, last time I checked we were all humans and students of one school, and  were all cool but we need to have part in taking care of our school. We can talk it why can’t we walk it? I must admit I have littered but now I want to stop it so that we can maintain our school beauty.Maintaining our school can keep on building our school reputation as new students arrive.

Dirt,germs,yucky stuff, diseases students of Tamaki Primary School this is why we need to take action of our school rubbish. It definitely won’t do it itself. Like I said we are responsible for the rubbish in our school.It was us who decided throw our trash on the ground and now it is up to us to eliminate these multiple pieces of rubbish flying around in our school
