It's later revealed that the school has been replacing Speedy over the years with a new hamster every time the previous Speedy dies, precisely because they thought the kids couldn't handle the death of a beloved pet. In the end, the main message is that it's much healthier to grieve for someone's death and honor their memory than just keep it a secret.
