What is School?

What is School?

School is a place where children get an Education. In NZ, when people are from age 5 to 10, they go to Primary School. When they turn 11 to 13, they go to Intermediate School. Depending on what Job you want or how hard your Job is depends on the amount of Years you go to College for. The Average person ranges from 4-6 Years, while professional people spend 7-8 Years. Then you can choose if you go to University. 

What do Kids learn?

The main topics that kids focus on are Reading, Writing, and Maths. Sometimes, we also do Cybersmart and Inquiry. For Writing, kids write about a story or a question, just like I'm doing now. Some people (like me) like to write their own stories about whatever they want, which means they choose to do extra work without being asked. For reading, kids read a text, talk about it, and then answer it. It’s pretty simple. For maths, we get a question and have to solve it using our brain. After we answer the question, we need to explain our thinking.

Physical Education

For our School at least, we do lots of Physical activities. On of the main activities that all the kids do, unless they are not in class for some reason, is Kiwisport. Kiwisport is an activity that we do with some Professionals, where we do a particular sport. Depending on what sport we are doing, depends on the coaches. For example, if we are doing cricket, we will have coaches from a good cricket club. We do Kiwisport for an hour, and there are different times for different classes. We also do Cross Country, where we have to run around the chosen course. And we go outside all day for one day, and do Physical activities (It’s called athletics day).

Friendship

Friendships are one of the most important parts of School. If people didn’t have friends at School, then the day would mostly be getting to School, working, have a break and eat some food, more work, more breaks, more work, then you go home. That’s pretty boring! People get friends just by talking to people and being in the same class as people. If you get friends at school, you will most likely go to the same Intermediate, College, and University. You also might lose some friends and gain some new ones. This might be hard for people, but it means that people are moving on.

From Reading to Friends, this is some of the things that people do at School. School is awesome in my Opinion. Until next time, see ya!
