Life Education

Kylie Chambers —

A piece of writing by Lola Martley - Year 4

This life education experience will boost you! 

The moment I entered the life education class the first thing I said was “Wow!” We sat down and I looked at all the cool spaces. It might not have windows, but it has posters of emoticons, a tree with all Harold's fluffy bird friends, and amazing lights making things glow! 

I learnt lots about how other people might react to different people’s actions. We learnt how to live above the line, which means being kind to others, listening, and more kind things like that. Living above the line boosts people! It’s okay to be below the line, you just can’t make other people’s day below the line. That’s called bugging people. 

There was a story to try to teach us to be kind to everyone even if they’re a bully or mean. Usually people are mean because no one showed them how to be nice, or they are upset and need cheering up! We learnt so much about feelings and our body! 

Harold was super funny, here’s one of his jokes “Why was the sand wet?” “Because the “sea weed”!” Ha ha! 

I thought it was amazing at life ed, and a great place to learn!
