Today we had a sports exchange with Kamo primary they were playing rugby and hockey. 

We went out and watched the games with these questions in our heads;

What are rules? and why do we need to follow them?

Do we need rules to be free?

Back in class we discussed our answers. we came up with the following statements;

Rules keep you safe, if you want to walk on the roof you could fall. If you walk out in the road you could get hurt. - Andre

Rules are good for half the time. It is boring for the other half. 

For example you could get grounded for silly rules like not going to the shop next door on school days. The good reasons for rules are that you might die if you do not follow them.
