Harry Ash Room 23 Fairfield Intermediate School 2009-06-26 Fairfield Intermediate School 261 Clarkin Road Hamilton Mr Noble

Dear Mr Noble My name is Harry Ash and I’m 11 years old. It is a pleasure to be writing to the principal of Fairfield Intermediate school. I am a year 7 student in room 23 with our wonderful teacher Miss Crawford. It’s already nearly half way through the year but it feels like it has only just started. I think that I’m going pretty well at this school with my education. I am currently in the highest math and reading group. And I’m entering the ICAS Reading and the Mathematics one too. I currently go to an education centre called Kip McGrath which I improve on English and Maths every Monday. To me I think that I am doing well at school and the Kip McGrath test have came back well over the past 2 years that I have been going there. The 2 basic rights are. The right to be safe and secure, and the right to a quality education. I think that the 2 basic rights are really awesome. I like the quality education one because it is true. Everybody deserves an education. But the right to be safe and secure needs a bit more enforcement because a lot of people get bullied. Then they might not want to have a quality education because they are too scared to get bullied more. This school has lots of good things about it, like air conditioning in each class and the hideaway alcoves. But then there are some things that need changing like maybe padding under the inter challenge to reduce the risk of somebody getting hurt. Another is more soap in the toilets so there will be fewer germs around the school which will mean less people will become sick and have to stay home. There is also the problem that is sweeping New Zealand called obesity. This is why I think that the canteen should be selling more healthy stuff like fruit and maybe a special that included fruit or vegetables. That doesn’t mean kids won’t stop buying because if you put something like fruit salad on the menu well its sweet and still healthy. It has been really great writing to you and really fun to. I can’t wait for the opportunities that being a year 8 will bring me. Have a good rest of the year. Yours Sincerely Harry Ash Room 23

To: Mr Noble Fairfield Intermediate school

Dear Me Noble, Hi, my name is Harry Ash. I am a year 7 student in room 23 with an awesome teacher (Miss Crawford). I have had lots of fun over the last year at Fairfield Intermediate school. At this school I have learnt a lot and not just things like mathematics and English. I have learnt stuff like how to play the drums and how to play some new outside games, for example flags. I really appreciate how you have made the new basic right (If you can’t say anything nice don’t say anything at all) because when I look around the school I sometimes see people name calling and making other people’s lives hard. This right is good because it should stop all of the bullying and the name calling. I think that there should be more soap dispensers in the boy’s toilet because there is none in there at the moment and when you need to wash your hands properly you can only use plain water. But on top of that you should wash your hands after you have been to the toilet anyway so it’s not hygienic. I think that being in a laptop class is really cool. You get to learn some many computer skills that you would not learn in a normal class. Plus you get to keep the laptop when you are finished at this school so you can use it at home when you finish your time at Fairfield Intermediate I am doing very well in my Mathematics and English but I do have an advantage over other students. I go to kip McGrath. It is a tutoring service were you go for 80 minutes and learn mathematics or English or both. Thank you for giving up some of your time to read my letter. Yours Sincerely Harry Ash
