Dear Mr Herring

I strongly believe that we should play more games outside because people are getting more and more obese   each day. Also we need more exercise.

Firstly, we have lots of technology and all we do is sit down and look at the screen.  I think having 21st century skills are great to have but we need more exercise.  We should also save some money and spend it all on technology and spend the savings on some more sports gear.

Secondly, we are a country school so we should be outside learning, because we can take in the beautiful scenery we need to appreciate what we have in the country.  We could also invite in some sports players like Jason Rutledge, Pete White maybe even a cyclist to encourage us to get outside.  Kaitlyn my friend says " we should get outside and be active also we need to get vitamin D into our bodies."

Thirdly, did you know that 1,128,500 NZ adults are over weight,  826,100 NZ adults are obese. I learnt that from the ministry of health. That is because we're not getting enough exercise. To encourage ourselves to get outside we could play: blob tag, farmer farmer, cricket , play ground explosion and king dodge.  Just to name a few!  Did you know that is bad for your health to get obese and you can die from obesity its almost like smoking but you get fatter.

Lastly, we shouldn't spend so much on technology and by another tennis court because how would you like it if you where going for a social hit of tennis with your friend and 30 other children come and have a hit too?  Also when your class is going outside for a game and the grass is wet, the activity centre is being used and there is an other class on the tennis court then you have to share, then your all squashed up and it is not fun.

In conclusion  we should get out side more.  Save some money and not spend it all on technology we could save up for another tennis court.  We need to get outside because do you want to look like the fat lazy obese people of wally or do you want a wonderful beach body.  That is why we should get outside and play more games.
