MY SCHOOL
I want to tell you about my school. I am a pupil of the ninth
form. My school is big: it has four floors. On the ground floor
there is a gym, a canteen, a medical room, a school museum and a
library. We usually have breakfast and lunch in the canteen.
They are always very tasty and nice.
Our gym is very up-to-date. School sports competitions take
place there.
The school library is rather big. It has a lot of modern books
and even books published in the 19th century! Pupils get
textbooks for free in the library.
The first floor is for primary school pupils. There are several
big classrooms and one with games and toys. After school pupils
can stay at school, play games and do their homework there until
their parents come to take them home.
On the second floor of my school you can find the classrooms of
Russian, Literature, Biology and English. There are three
classrooms of English. They are decorated with pictures and
maps.
On the third floor there are the classrooms of Chemistry,
Biology, Maths and others. We have a big computer lab there,
too. There are a lot of modern computers in the lab. Pupils can
make reports and prepare their homework there. The Internet
access is also available for all pupils for free. Our chemistry
lab is very big. During Chemistry lessons we make experiments
with teacher's help. I am not good at Chemistry, but I like
working in our lab a lot.
Most of our classrooms have tape-recorders, TV-sets, video- and
DVD-players, so teachers show us educational films and
documentaries. All classrooms are very cozy. There are a lot of
flowers and posters on the walls.
There are also a lot of interesting clubs at school. I like the
theatre club. We have staged a lot of plays and I am proud that
I can take part in them. We also have a handicraft club, a
dancing studio and an art studio. Any pupil can be a member of
this or that club. They are all free of charge.
There is a large assembly hall on the third floor. School
meetings and concerts take place there. There is a large stage
and modern equipment necessary for school plays and concerts.
I really like my school and I am happy to study in it.
