Hello, I am a grade 8 student at John Black Public School. I strongly disagree with the proposition that we should install WIFI in school busses. The main reason I am opposed to this is that it just sounds idiotic when you think about it. We could be spending thousands of dollars on pointless WIFI that we could be spending on better school lunches, or keeping the school itself in good condition.  If the kids find out that their bus has WIFI they could be very quick to abuse it. Kids on the bus could look up things they shouldn’t, or use the WIFI so much that the bill could go off the charts. To be honest, there isn’t really much point at all to install WIFI on busses. The trips aren’t actually that long, and we have so much to do other than watch YouTube. We can listen to music, talk to friends, play  games with friends, and some kids already have data on their phone, so they don’t need WIFI anyway. We live in a generation that spends their lives on their phones, I would know, I spend my life on electronics as well.  So why do we need WIFI in such a pointless place like the bus, when we can get it everywhere else?

Sincerely,

Louise Turner
