We should have rubbish bins in our school because it will benefit our environment!

I believe we should have rubbish bins in our school.


  1. My first argument for why we should have rubbish bins is because if we took our rubbish home, our bags will be filled with rubbish and so there might not be enough  room for us to take our homework, lunch box or books home.
  2. My second argument is that we should have rubbish bins so when our bins are full with trash, there will be professional cleaners that will come and sort the rubbish, this way the rubbish can be disposed of properly and hygienically.
  3. My last argument is that some rubbish could drift into the water and then fish might eat them and starve, because they may feel full even though it is just the plastic blocking their stomach. Consequently, they die of starvation and this may  cause global wildlife to face extinction.


In conclusion, I believe that if we use rubbish bins, we can reduce some of the world's pollution and train our future generations to try and preserve our Earth's environment.

Learning Intention: We are learning to follow the structure of a persuasive writing.
Success Criteria: I know I can do this when I record three reasons why we should have rubbish bins in our school.
