Are the 3P’s important to our school?
By Leilani

I think the 3P’s are very important
because the 3P’s represent
protection, participation and
partnership. All three of those
things help us to be happy, safe and
successful in life. The 3P’s help us
to work with each other and help
us to include other people.

Protection means to protect
others and stand up for your
classmates and yourself.
Protection plays a very good part
in looking after the environment.
When we protect our
environment, we would feel safe
and happy, and our environment
will be clean.

Participation means taking part in
a reading group or writing group.
Participation is getting involved
with different things. The people
who signed the Treaty of Waitangi
participated in signing the Treaty as
an agreement.
