• A conclusion restates your main point.

• Remind the audience of your strongest reasons.

• End with a powerful final statement or “call to action.”

• Use persuasive language to leave a lasting impression.

• Remind your audience of your main idea.

• Keep it short and strong.

  
  Examples:

• "Our school needs a new basketball court, and now you can see why it is so important."

• "So, as I’ve explained, our school needs a new basketball court. It’s the best way to keep us safe, active, and proud of our school."

• "In the end, it’s clear that building a new basketball court is the right choice. We all deserve a safe and modern place to play and learn."

• "After everything you’ve heard, there’s no doubt — a new basketball court is what our school needs, and we need it now!"

• Mention your main 2–3 strongest reasons.

• Don’t add new information!
  Sentence starters:

• “We have seen that…”

• “These reasons show clearly that…”

• “From cost to safety, the evidence is clear…”

Summarise Examples:

• "We have seen that a new basketball court will make our school safer, give us more space to play, and bring our community together."

• "From the safety of students, to the cost benefits, to the pride it will bring our school, the reasons all point to the same solution."

• "These reasons — safety, fairness, and enjoyment — show us why a new court is not just wanted, but needed."

• Ask a rhetorical question: “Don’t our students deserve a safe court?”

• Make a powerful statement: “It’s time to make a change!”

• Give a call to action: “Let’s work together to make this happen.”

Examples

• "Don’t we all deserve a safe, modern basketball court where every student can play with pride?"

• "It’s time for our school to take action and build the court we need — the time for change is now."

• "Let’s work together — students, teachers, and families — to make our new basketball court a reality."

• Emotive language: "amazing", "essential", "exciting", "unfair"

• Alliteration: "fun, friendly facility"

• Repetition: "We need it. We deserve it. We’re ready for it."

• Rhetorical questions: "Don’t we all want a more exciting playground?"

• High Modality: "You must install colder water bubblers within the school immediately!"
