Activity 3: ‘Dear Jacinda’ [6 points]
The Right Honorable Jacinda Ardern is the current Prime Minister (PM) of New Zealand (NZ). You might have heard of her because she’s in the news a lot! Did you know that she is the second youngest person and the second woman ever to be elected PM of NZ?
As PM, Jacinda Ardern makes a number of important decisions every day. Before she makes these decisions, she meets with many people to hear their ideas and get their perspectives (views) on issues.
Let’s imagine you were to write a letter to Jacinda Ardern about an issue that is really important to you, and to ask her for help. It could be something serious to do with education, health or welfare, or it could be something more fun and crazy - you decide!
Dear Jacinda Ardern - A.K.A Prime Minister,
It's getting really hot because it is summer. So because it is getting really hot the pools should be free for everyone! Like some pools or most of the pools, it says 16 and under is for free but it should be free for everyone in summer since its getting hot! Also, it shouldn't just be free for the kids but free for everyone because adults swim as well! Besides that have a great day. Merry Christmas!

Hi Christopher, this is Mrs Collins from Manaiakalani and I'll be commenting on blogs over term break. Well done on posting and participating in the SLJ this year. I really like the persuasive argument about free swimming for everyone...how could we really make it happen? Keep blogging, and commenting on others, to increase your chance of winning one of the awesome prizes and to keep up your learning over the school break!
