Kea Patrol

I strongly believe that we must have kea patrol in the afternoon because at the end of the day
nobody is focusing on crossing the road. At 3 p.m. State Highway 6 gets very busy with parents
and adults driving past to pick up kids.  Kea patrol gives older kids a chance to help the school.

Everyone would agree that we should have kea patrol after school because every day at 3 p.m. lots
of kids cross State Highway 6 to get home. Kea patrol helps lots of kids cross the roads safely to
get to their parents that are waiting on the other side of the road. Having kea patrol  is very
important because lots of kids are talking to their friends and aren't focusing and paying
attention about crossing the road.

Kea Patrol is very vital to have kea patrol  because State Highway 6 gets very busy at 3 p.m.
because lots of people are going to pick up kids from schools and they are going 70 km then
they slam on the brakes to slow down to 40 km. Without Kea Patrol kids would just run out in
front of cars and they might not see the little kids. There have  been serious car crashes on
State Highway 6 outside our school. Kea patrol makes it a whole lot safer for kids to cross
the very busy road.

Kea patrol  gives seniors a chance to give back and be helpful to the school and prove that they
can be responsible. Without the kids that volunteer for kea patrol it would take a lot longer and
be more dangerous. The teachers would also have to do everything. Volunteering for kea patrol
is a big help to our school because the kids that volunteer make sure everyone gets across the
active road safely.

In conclusion kea patrol should remain in the afternoon because it helps kids cross the dangerous
road safely when they aren’t paying any attention, State Highway 6 gets very busy at 3 p.m. and
kea patrol stops traffic so everybody can cross safely and the last reason why we should keep
kea patrol is that kea patrol gives seniors a chance to be helpful and give back to our school.
Therefore keeping kea patrol in the afternoon is very important.
