Home Work Speech

To shave or not to shave that is the question

Today I will be speaking to you about shaving. In my opinion, I think people should shave going for that smooth look.


Firstly, lets begin by telling you what shaving actually is. Did you know shaving is the removal of hair.


Now lets discuss the benefits of shaving. In some religions it is religious practice to shave the head but wouldn't you get cold? Like seriously how does Mr Sevenson feel on a cold winters day?

Head shaving is also common amongst competitive sports such as swimming, running and extreme sports. Lets take Ian Thorpe for example, an Australian swimmer who specializes in freestyle. He has won 5 Olympic gold medals. Usain Bolt Jamaican sprinter, widely regarded as the fastest person ever. What do these two men have in common you ask? They both shave their entire bodies. So shaving obviously makes you faster.


Historically, head shaving has also been used to humiliate and punish. Imagine that. Imagine getting into trouble at school and Mr G saying, Right boy, come here, it’s time to shave your head. You haven’t been showing Parkvale Pride. Be gone with your hair.


And then there is shaving your head, moustache or beard for fund-raising efforts. Isn’t it remarkable to see our Role Models such as teachers, All Blacks, Politicians growing their facial hair in the support of cancer research and charitable organisations only to shave it off and raise money for people who are suffering from this terrible disease that constantly terrorizes us. We all know of someone who has passed away from this. So how incredibly unselfish is it to shave a little hair for the sake of someone else’s health.


Finally, I feel that everyone of us should now see the benefits of shaving. We all want to look gorgeous, be fast and do the right thing by charitable trusts, don’t we? After listening to my speech hopefully I’ve done enough to persuade you to shave.


To shave or not to shave - what will you do?

Hanging out with my friends in the Holidays

The holidays 

In the Holidays my friends and I went to the Movies and Inflatable world. I had a great time and I know my friends had an awesome time as well. As Sophia, Bree, Kyrah, Kyrah's brothers and I stepped on the obstacle course we held everybody up as we stood on the top of the slide. At the movies we run past everyone else as the movie was about to start we sat down on our seats and I opened the popcorn, "yum" whispers Bree.

Here is a picture of us 4 bffs at Inflatable World

Getting my sport achiever badge

When Miss Hill called my name out for a sport achiever badge I was puzzled and excited at the same time.
I had never thought I would get this badge for some reason, I just thought because I only played 1 sport which was netball and made it to championships for running  I might of not gotten it. I had got my envelope that had my name written on it, inside was two badges and a letter. I was so happy but I really wanted academic as well but I am grateful that I got a sport badge.

My fab holiday

Hanging out with my friends

As Kyrah and I walked into the movie theater I saw my other friends Bree and Sophia. We all had our movie tickets and were ready to walk into theater two. I sat on my seat and waited for the movies, since the movies took so long to start I grabbed the popcorn out of my bag to share with my bff. Finally the Planes fire and rescue had started. The seats started vibrating when a plane zoomed past the screen. Bree decided to vibrate the seats even more, It was so crack up.Once the movie was finished my mum meet us outside. We walked to Westermins cafe and had lunch I had a chicken panini and a banana smoothie. After that me and my friends went shopping with my mum.Today was so fun and I cant wait to tell you about Inflatable world with my bff's some other time.
