Undoubtedly,
school plays in significant role in student’s life. Some people advocate that a
school spend their money on organizing social activities after school rather
than improving food of cafeteria, while others do not. Both sides may have
their own reasons to support their views. If I were asked to choose one, I
would say that investing money on social activity programs after school is
better than developing meal qualities. There are several reasons as follows.
First
of all, social activity encourages student to improve sense of cooperation,
which leads to more desirable results. If student have a team work, they would
be passionate and self-disciplined. When these personal traits are developed,
it is likely to bring a better consequence in school. For example, many
research team, including Seoul National University, analyzed data from two
groups of students. One group consisted of those who were participated in volunteering
program with their classmates every week and the other group did not. The
researchers found that the former was more likely to achieve their goals and
get higher scores especially in group assignment than the latter. This is because,
the first group knew how to interact with other people. On the other hand, the
second group tended to get distracted easily and seems to be difficult to
communicate with each other. Hence, social activities such as volunteering work
are important key to success in academically and professionally.
In
addition, group activity has positive impacts on student’s health. To be
specific, group activity including playing sports is essential for student’s
healthy life. In my experience, when I was high school student, I was exhausted
physically as well as got a lot of stress due to preparing entrance exam for
university. That time I decided to join a tennis club in order to solve my
problems. During exercise, body generated more white blood cells. Increase in
white blood cell strengthened immune system and makes me higher resistance to
disease. Also playing tennis improved blood flow to the brain and it helped me
clear my head and relieve stress. Therefore, with physical activity after
school, student can maintain their health.
All
things considered, I strongly believe that the advantages of social activity
far outweigh those of high quality of meals for the reasons I have mentioned
above. By organizing social activities, school gives students many opportunities
to develop their personal skills to success and keep their health. |
