The children in the Senior Hub have been working on their persuasive writing skills. Here are some examples from Room 8.

There is no question that living on a farm is way more fun than living in the city. Firstly, why would you even consider not living on a farm when you get to ride on motorbikes and drive tractors? 

Secondly, you have lots of land for having pet animals like horses, dogs and sheep and that's only naming a few. You can also make bike tracks. 

Finally, working on a farm is super peaceful, warm and sunny and you can still have a nice house with wi-fi! - Mackley Adams

It is without a doubt that cats are better pets than dogs. Cats are easy to care for, they are quiet and they are very affordable.

Firstly, they are very easy to care for because they groom themselves and they go to the toilet outside. Really all you have to do is feed them.

Secondly, they are very quiet, even quieter than dogs. They don't bark a lot and they don't bark at visitors as soon as they walk in the door.

Finally, they are affordable, so affordable that 59.6% of people have cats instead of dogs, making cats better and more popular than dogs.

In conclusion, cats are cute and cuddly creatures while dogs are dirty and destructive animals. Do you think cats are better than dogs? - Noah Jackson

There is no doubt that if we could only eat hot food or cold food, we should all choose cold food.

Firstly, there is more cold food than hot food available.

Secondly, there are lots of delicious cold foods like ice cream, milkshakes, ice blocks and sushi.

Finally, on a boiling hot day an ice cream is just what you need, not something hot. I think we can all agree cold food is better than hot food - Georgia Adamson

There is no doubt that living on a farm is amazing! You get eggs from your chickens, milk from the cows, wool from the sheep, horse back rides from the horses and you can grow your own fruit and veges.

Firstly, you won't have to go to the supermarket that often which means less money spent! Growing your own food is more healthy. Eggs, wool, milk and the kids get free horse rides.

Secondly, it is quieter on the farm. If you live in a city there are cars going all night! It's impossible to rest. Yeah, there are roosters on a farm but you can put them in a chicken coop at night so you can rest.

Finally, growing up on a farm is a better lifestyle choice for everyone! There's less traffic, less noise and you will have so many farm animals that the kids and you will be less distracted by technology.

In conclusion, a farm is a better way of living for the whole family, including the dogs. I know you'll enjoy it more than a city. So, if you want a better lifestyle, buy yourself a farm today - Johanna Anglemyer
