Answer 1

Some children say that school is boring and a waste of time. But I don’t agree with them.

I like school and on holiday I miss my friends and teachers and I always look forward to

school. Our school life is interesting. We have got a lot of interesting after-school

events during the year. We take part in sports competitions. We often go on outings to do

tasks for History and Geography. Each term we go on field trips to interesting historical

places and museums. I do well in many subjects but my favourite is History.

I can’t say I like French because we have to learn a lot by heart. I think I can do without

French. I like going to school because I mix with my friends there and discover new things in the lessons.
