Year 4 HSBC Bank Webinar – Needs and Wants!

 

Year 4 enjoyed a great webinar session with the ladies from the HSBC bank today. We discussed wants and needs, and how we cannot always have what we want. We were set a challenge – can we visit Reece at his station in Antarctica to help him? What sort of things do we want to take? What sort of things do we need to take? Reply to Reece below in the form of a letter, and we can share with the HSBC ladies.

    Dear Mr Reece Urcher,
    A need is a thing you can‘t live without.
    A want is a thing you wish for.
    One thing I need to take is warm clothes (Thermal Clothing) to avoid frostbite and in the cold weather I have to stay warm.
    One thing I want to take to Antarctica is a camera because I can take cool photos of the northern lights, they are very beautiful.
    The item I decided not to take was a skies because they are heavy and can’t fit in small places like backpacks it’s better to carry lighter backpacks.
    The item I chose to take from home instead my own clothes like Pajamas for night time because it’s more homely and would make me less home sick.

    Dear Mr Reece Urcher,

    A need is something to really survive and protect you.

    A want is something you don’t need.

    One thing I need to take to Antarctica is snowsuit (Jumper, hat, scarf and gloves) because it will keep me warm.
    One thing I want to take to Antarctica is an iPad because it will keep me entertained.

    The item I decided not to take was mobile phone because I would have an iPad.

    The item I chose to take from home instead was a photo of my family because it will remind me of them while I’m on my expedition.
