Why is it important to have a healthy heart?

The most important part of our body is our heart because without it, we can’t stay alive. The heart pumps and pushes blood around our body. It takes 60 seconds for the blood to circulate around our body then it goes back to the heart again. That’s why t is called Circulatory system.

When you get a heart attack, it means that your heart is not beating properly and you can die from it if you do not get help right away. You should be brought to the hospital very quickly so that you can get medical help from the doctors. Some people suffer from heart attacks because their heart is full of fats and the blood cannot circulate properly. Some people can have heart attacks when they get very scared, or when they have huge problems in life or when their heart is weak because of heart diseases.

When you run very fast and you get tired, your heart beats very, very fast and it pumping blood fast as well. We should look after our body so we can have a healthy heart. Doing some exercises such as playing rugby, futsal, basketball, touch and softball will keep us healthy and strong.

It is very important that we should eat healthy foods like vegetables and fruits and some meat, get plenty of sleep and rest, drink plenty of milk and water so that we can keep our body and heart healthy.

The Duffy Hero!

Today, Saint Patrick’s School got a visit from the author Tony Williams. He shared with us his journey as a writer. He wrote a book called ‘The wild boy in town’. He told us what it takes to be a good writer. You need to have your own ideas and understand a lot of words so you can use them.

Where does sounds that we hear come from?

We hear sounds because we have ears.

When  sounds come to you it comes through you ears and sends a message to your brain. When you listen to very loud noises your ear can become deaf because the the loud noise may cause damage your eardrum.

When  someone talk to you very loud, your ear will send a message to your brain and your brain will send a message to you and you will know that the person is talking to you. We need our ears because if we do not have our ears, we can not hear anything.

When you poke something into your ear and hit your eardrum hard, you could damage your eardrums. Your eardrums are important to your ears because otherwise you can could become deaf.   

Looking after your eardrums because if we do not have eardrums we are not able to hear anything.
