Topic School

I spend a lot of time at school. This place is like my second home. I think that school years are one of the most important parts of our lives. It’s the time when we get major knowledge on different subjects, certain skills and experience for living in the society.

This year I’m going to finish my native school number 1 and it makes me a bit sad. However, while I’m still here, I’d like to tell you a little bit about this school. It is a two-storey building with light and spacious classrooms. There is a school playground and an athletic field outside the school. Apart from classrooms we have a library, a gym, a cloak-room, a dining-room, and a small assembly hall. The halls are full of useful posters and portraits of renowned people, among them writers, scientists, musicians and others. The headmaster’s office is located on the ground floor, while the room for teachers is on the first floor. Our school works from Monday till Friday. We have lessons from 9.00 am till 2:30 pm. The breaks between the lessons usually last from 5 to 20 minutes. During the longest break we go to dining-room. I get to meet with my friends from other forms there. We eat and chat together.

My favorite subjects are English and PE. The classroom for English lessons is well-equipped. There is a good collection of foreign literature, a TV with DVD, a computer and lots of headphones for us. The walls are decorated with British and American sights. When we have PE lessons our teacher takes us to the gym. We do lots of exercise there and sometimes we play team games. If the weather is warm, we can have the lesson outside. I think life would be boring without schools and it’s a pity that school years don’t last longer.
