i am getting more and more pissed by the day..lols! today wanted to go out... but they didn't reply my messeges at all nor talk to me on msn.. what? dont want to go out say la. so went with my grandmother and aunty see the st. lukes elderly daily care or whatever.. then went ikea.. and had a hot dog frenzy.. lols! dinner solved. came back and read newspaper.. i saw this article " Start School Later and Let the Children Sleep Longer" super nice.. actually wanted to go straits times website get the article.. but no..... have to pay and subscribe.. wtf. so i'll just summarise.. the article says that schools should start at a later time because this would allow them to sleep longer - so that their brians are able to process information, solve problems and make decisions - and eat breadfast to promote health.. it says that many schools did attempt to change but.. BUS DRIVERS DONT ALLOW.. because they said that they have to fetch factory workers after that........ and it goes on to reason about the positive side of letting schools start early and that schools in other countries start at 8 or 9am.. it ends with "... we should not inhibit our children's potential - they are after all, the nation's future - because of logistic difficulties.", (Straits Times ,9th Jan 2009) i fully agree with the last sentence.. whats this? why must the schools suit the BUS DRIVERS and not the BUS DRIVERS suit the majority.. hello?! GET NEW BUS DRIVERS LAH!! this is negligence cann.. 1)the schools owes the students a duty of care. 2)it is bring breached because they do not think of the students but let the BUS DRIVERS influence them.. 3)the damage suffered is the childrens future.. i quote ".. if sufficient sleep resulted in a 1 to 2 percentage point improvement, that would be a big jump... ", (Straits Times ,9th Jan 2009). why let the children's future be tarnished because of administration stuff? why put the children at risk because of what BUS DRIVERS say.. (although there are other factors involved.) 4) the direct consequence of this act is the lack of sleep and gastric problem becasue some of them don't eat breadfast.. what is this world coming to.. they should talk about this ten thousand years ago.. and i need bio notes.. ohh my prac. =( |
