Warehouse Letter

Room 1 decided to send a letter to the Warehouse because they were asking a couple of students to buy a plastic bag in exchange for a token. They were just trying to help our school pool.

Dear the warehouse

To whom it may concern,

My name is James Robb, I am a student at Sunnyhills school.

Three of my classmates were told to by a plastic bag for a token. It cost them ten cents for a bag. It says on your website you are trying to reduce the amount of plastic bags, so why do you have to sell a plastic bag for a token?

One trillion plastic bags are made every year, and approximately 380 billion plastic bags end up in the ocean. A large number of animals die every year.

I understand that the money from the plastic bags funded the school pool heat pump.  but I just don't understand why you have to buy a plastic bags to get a token. Instead of giving a customer a token when they buy a plastic bag, could you instead give the customer a token if they don't use a bag?

I like shopping at the warehouse because you always have bargains. Thank you for helping us get the heat pump. Thank you for reading this letter, I hope to stop selling plastic bags.

Yours sincerely,

James Robb

Our Class Treaty

Room 1 are very happy to present their class treaty!

Together as a class we brainstormed everything we believe is an integral part of our class culture. How we would like to feel when we walk in the room and the ambiance we would like the classroom to have.

We then voted on our favorite ideas and put these together as promises to ourselves, our classmates and our school.

All 27 students have signed the treaty.
