Why Pt England school is an important part of our community.

 Why Pt England school is an important part of our community.


Introduction:

The importance of school…

What moulds our personality.

Where we make our friends.

 What decides our future.

It’s one of the most important places in communities.

I mean, without it, where would you be now?




Learning Perspective:

Most start school at a very young age. Meaning you wouldn’t know many things. Learning is essential in life, it’s what brought humans to where we are now, sharing ideas, sharing our knowledge, and teaching the next generation so they know more than us, therefore improving our species.

At a young age, you don’t have a fully developed personality, but near other people, whether friends or bullies, they can help mould your personality. 



As you get older, and travel to the next school, you’ll find that most schools offer various subjects, not just ranging from literacy to maths, but from more unique subjects such as art, music, culture, coding, engineering etc.

In exploring more subjects, you’ll surely find something you love. This makes you want to learn more about it, makes you improve on it, and sooner or later, you have your dream career.



Mental Perspective:

Schools are most likely the first place you meet others apart from your family. This is where you’ll meet your friends, and even bullies.

However, this forms your personality. You’ll know what kind of people you like, what kind of people you dislike, what kind of person you want to be, and you may even find a role-model to you.

Some schools can also be of help with your religion and culture.
Some schools encourage your beliefs, as well as sharing knowledge of what your religion knows. This helps you understand more, and gives you an explanation of certain things in life.

The same applies for culture. If you’re at a good school, schools will encourage your culture. They’ll teach you things about it, such as traditions, beliefs and more.
As you grow older into your late teens, and enter the more complex schools, it’s likely that you might even find a love interest.

Whether your soul-mate or not, it’s nice to have one.



Future Impact:

So, you’re an adult now.

After all this time, the friends you’ve made, the events you’ve partaken. The ideas you’ve achieved, and the inspirations you’ve left.

You’ll be older, you’ll have a job. In the community, you might even have some friends you made as a child. School may have helped you with that. You may even have your dream career, School may have helped you with that. School would've helped you with a lot of things.



Conclusion:

After so many years, you’re an adult now. And you would have many friends, a job, and perhaps even a love. School would have a massive effect on all of these. 

So, now you ponder the question “Why School is an important part of our community?”. Well, in the community, as an adult, it’s important because now, you’re you. School has helped mould what is you, after all this, your achievements, your graduation, in the end, it’s why you’re here today, it’s why you’re the amazing person you are now!

So, in conclusion, school helps your role in the community, because school has made what’s you, you.

Guy Fawkes Night

 Guy Fawkes


Guy Fawkes is a day we celebrate by launching Fire-works to the sky. But why? Well, today, I'm going to explain the What, When, Who, Where and Why of Guy Fawkes.


The name comes from a person who tried to assassinate King. In London, City of West-minister, 1605, he and his group planned to explode the home of the King, this was called the "Gunpowder Plot from 1605". In the end, Guy Fawkes and his plan had failed when he had been caught guarding explosives. We celebrate this day with Fire-works, due to the failure of the "Gunpowder Plot", and it's named "Guy Fawkes", in the defeat of the assassins.

PEEL Structure Example

Explanation


How Can the Snoozatron Help You Sleep?


When Wallace is struggling to sleep, he activates his ‘Snoozatron’ device. This remarkable contraption will help any insomniac inventor return swiftly to the land of nod. Would you like to know how it works? Then read on…

Auto-Comfy Bed


How It Works


Finding that he’s wide awake in the middle of the night, Wallace pulls the big, red lever (next to his bed) that activates the machine; immediately, an alarm rings in Gromit’s bedroom. As a result, his faithful assistant wakes up, retrieves a sheep costume from the wardrobe where it’s kept and puts it on.


Meanwhile, back in Wallace’s room, several mechanisms spring into action: giant mechanical hands – covered in soft fabric – bounce out from under his bed, re-tucking his covers; two huge leather pads appear and begin to push and plump the pillows from both sides (see illustration), before both devices disappear again. A pair of pincers then swings down and deposits a cosy hot water bottle on Wallace’s lap. This is accompanied by another arm, which passes him his favourite teddy bear. As a consequence of all these events, Wallace starts to feel warm and comfortable again. At the same time, the picture on the wall nearby folds down to reveal a record player, which

subsequently begins to play soothing music. Additionally, the sound of lambs bleating can be heard.


At this point, Gromit is sleepily waiting in the kitchen, with a cup of tea, because he knows he’ll soon be called to action. A hatch drops open above him and Wallace calls down, “Ready Gromit!” Gromit sighs. Wearily, he steps back onto a circular platform, which is in turn mounted on a massive spring. Suddenly, he is catapulted through the hatch into Wallace’s room and up past the end of the bed, before falling back and rebounding on the platform.


This final process is repeated over and over. Every time ‘Gromit the sheep’ appears, Wallace counts: “One, two, three…” until he starts to feel sleepy again - the

Snoozatron can reliably bounce Gromit up to 9999 times!
