Bonus Activity: You Have to Pay to Play

In 1990, for the first time in New Zealand’s history, universities and polytechnics started charging students money to go to school. Prior to then, it had been free to go to university or to a polytechnic. Since 1990, students have had to pay thousands of dollars to attend post-secondary (after high school) education.

The new Labour government have promised to give up to three years of free post-secondary education to all New Zealanders by 2020!

On your blog, tell us what you think. Should students have to pay money (tuition fees) to go to university? Why or why not?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think that Students shouldn't pay because some can't pay there fee to go to University but they want a good life and a good Education . But on the other hand I know that they are using equipment that are not there's . But I think that the Students should pay to go to University but the Other Students that can't pay and can't go to University we should find a way for every kid to go to University to get a Good Life and most Importantly a Good Education . So What I think is Both Student's pay and Students Shouldn't Pay .

I am going to University to Study to be a Doctor . How bout you?
