Why do we need school?

 Why do we need school?

Have you ever wondered why you need to go to school? In NZ school is compulsory to attend school between the ages 5-16. We all need to go school to learn, to get a job, to socialise. 

To learn:

Why do you think  it is important to learn at school? At school we learn lots of things like math, reading, writing and alot more other things. Sometimes the things you learn at school could actually make your life much easier like going to the shops and being able to read all the things you buy, also being able to use math to keep up with the price. There are alot of reasons why it is important to learn at school. 

To get a Job:

Can school help you with getting a job? School can play a big part of your life. The subjects at school that you learn could help big time. Like if you wanted to become a builder you have your math that you learn at school. Also at college you can pick your subject’s from year 11-13, maybe that could help you get the job you’re looking for. Going to school can help you get a job.

Making long life friends:

Do you have friends from school? Many people have friends from school that they are still friends with till today. At school we are taught how to make friends and how to use our manners to make friends. Sometimes these friends become long life friends and stay friends for a long time.

So these are three reasons why school is important. They are to learn, to get a job, making friends.
