The Lorax

This term the Senior School are learning about Recycling. 

To get us thinking about ways humans harm and help our environment, we watched the Lorax and discussed some of the quotes from the text. This is what we thought of the Lorax's wise words:

We think that the Lorax is trying to look after the water, trees, air and animals. We think we should be like the Lorax because he likes to care for the environment. We should help the Lorax by telling people to care for our world.

By Samantha, Ellen and Oka

We think that the Lorax’s words inspire us to convince the public to recycle and stop killing trees and animals homes. In our opinion the Once-ler was greedy and didn’t care about the environment.

By Savannah and Augustina

If no one cares for the world, it will be DESTROYED. We need to do everything we can to take care of the world, the animals and stop people polluting the sea.

By Jena, David and Ardyn

We are the Lorax’s messengers. Our responsibility is to care for the environment by making good choices and to help others make good choices.

By Hayden, Micheal and Carlito

Stop people from killing animals, sea creatures and trees. Stop people who don’t care about the environment. Don’t just TELL them to pick it up, EXPLAIN what will happen if they don’t.

 By L.J, Jeremiah and Kaz

In our opinion the first quote means that WE need to stand up for the environment so we can protect it. We think the second quote means that if people DO care for the environment things will be alright.

By Waina, Amy and Gwyneth

We can be the Lorax’s Minions and protect the Earth. We can spread the word to people and maybe it will change their minds. We have to be role models and help other people, help us, to save the world.

By Nevaeh, Tarita and Adam
