NO to extending school hours.


We already come to school for 6 hours which is 30 hours a week. Loburn school proposal to extend school hours would cause problems for our brains,our family's and our teachers.

I think we should keep our own time as 9:00 to 3:00 because our brains will burst if we have it as 8:30 to 3:30. Also it would be hard for us kids to take in all the information and I think that because the hours of school are longer we would be getting more work to do.

It would also affect our family because my siblings need to go to high school at different times so it would be hard for us to get to school and also they got to get to school. So 8:30 would not work.

Another reason why this would not work is because the teachers might have other children that go to different schools at the same time and the teachers would not be able to get to this shoot in time.

Therefore,extending the school hours would NOT be beneficial for the children, families and the teachers.

  1. You have made some very interesting points here Kate. You have given supporting detail which has convinced me that our school hours should stay the same. When I was in Year 7 and 8 at my old school in Dunedin we started school at 8:30am and finished at 3:35pm. It made for a very long school day!
