Jonive is trying to persuade us...

Should every school have swimming lessons?

Yes every school should have swimming lessons because it can save your life!

If you don't learn how to swim you might drown because you might get scared when you can't touch the bottom.
Did you know that NZ is surrounded by water and 43 people have drowned this year because they didn't know how to swim?
Swimming is fun and if you can swim you can stay in the deep pool and you will be safe.

I think everyone should have swimming lessons because it can save our lives.

  4. Well said Jonive. I hope that more kids will be safe and learn to swim after reading the arguements in your blog. And you are right - swimming is a lot of fun.

  5. Jonive I think that you have made some very persuasive arguments about why you should learn to swim and I also really like how you have backed it up by writing some supportive evidence.
