My Speech

Should Panmure Bridge School have a swimming pool? By Samantha



I simply think that Panmure Bridge School should have a swimming pool because it is good exercise and it gets everyone in the class involved. Also if you are stressed swimming is a good way to calm you down.

I think that Panmure Bridge School should have a swimming pool because if some people do not know how to swim they could go to the swimming pool and take swimming lessons with their teacher and some friends. Also swimming has great techniques such as freestyle, backstroke, butterfly, also you can practise with a flutter board.




Swimming can help you  lose weight and makes you more fit and healthier. Also it is a good exercise for people who are obese. Sometimes some people can have trouble with swimming thats why it is good to to take swimming lessons
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
In Auckland there have been some people who have been drowned. Also have you heard that New Zealand has the worst drowning rates in the world. Also it means that not children and adults are not getting taught how to swim.

While 8 in 10 drownings are  over the of age 14 years, children aged 1 - 4 years have the highest drowning rates. In that young age group, nearly one in three deaths are from accidental injury come from drowning. For every death by drowning in those age 14 and under, there are four visits to emergency rooms for near-drownings, which can result in lifelong injury, including permanent brain damage.





I simply think that we should have a swimming pool because it will  mean a lot to us, we would not be part of those statistics and it would be a great opportunity for us to have a swimming pool. That’s why I think that Panmure Bridge have a swimming pool.
