My school is a beautiful place with trees and a lawn. I’m glad to be a student of this school. The library is my favourite place. We can read, study, and listen to interesting lectures there. The food in our canteen is delicious. During lunch, we can talk about something fun.
We learn more subjects at middle school, such as geography, science, and history. I love the new subjects. Sometimes they are difficult, but our teachers are always happy to help us.
My classmates are also friendly. We like playing games during breaks. Helen likes tug-of-war, and I like playing basketball.
There are a lot of clubs and activities in our school. Every Friday afternoon, I’m so excited to go to the paper-cutting class with Rita. We really look forward to the festivals of science and art, and the sports day in October.
