We go to different classrooms for different lessons. There are many interesting subjects to choose from, such as drama and foreign languages. To us, learning Chinese may not be as simple as learning French or German, but I am looking forward to having a go.
The arts are as important as languages, Maths and Science at our school. We have a special building just for art, music and drama lessons. It is great to be creative and it helps us study better in other subjects.
