A Special Place

Hello, my name is Caleb, and in this writing I am going to be explaining about a special place. There are many special places in our community, however, I could only choose one. And that place is my school, Pt England.

There are so many good things about Pt England, I don’t know where to start, so how about I start by saying about what we do at Pt England. Pt England has over 650 students in our school. We also have 27 classrooms, with 1 or 2 teachers in each of them. Our school goes from years 1-8, which means you get to be at primary and intermediate here.

Every day, when the bell rings at 8:30am (for the year 7-8) or 8:50 (for the year 1-6), the kids come into class and start to learn. When the clock hits 11:00am, the kids get a break for eating, and playing. When the bell rings at 11;30am, the kids go back to class, and wait for their teacher to let them in for more learning. Then at 1:00pm, kids get another break for lunch and play. Then, at 2:00pm, another bell rings and the kids come back inside the classroom. At 3:00pm, when the bell rings, the school day ends.

We don’t just do the same thing every day, for 6 hours long, because that would be boring. Sometimes, we go on trips to places like the Zoo, Motat, the Museum, and so many more. Once every 2 years, we do this thing called Fiafia. Before fiafia, we practice a item that we choose. For example, when we write down what we want, and someone chooses Jump Jam first, then most likely, they will get Jump Jam. If they don’t get Jump Jam, they’ll probably get there 2nd or 3rd choice. We have to practice our item for nearly a whole term, and then near the end of the term, at night, we show our item. It really is marvellous.

Another reason I like our school is because we are really close to some other places, like Pt England Beach, and the GI pools. And that is really cool. One time a year, we visit the Beach for a whole day for a picnic. We also go to the pools for a few weeks a year, for swimming lessons.

There are also a tone of awesome things in our school to. A few years ago, they added a bike track, that goes around the playgrounds, around the field, and back. We can only ride the bikes if we have a certain ticket for bike riding, which is given to kids who are behaving and want one. As mentioned earlier, we also have two playgrounds, and two huge fields. They are really fun to play on.

There are so many more things I would like to add, but because of time, I could only write this much. From learning, to fiafia, these are some of the things that I really like about our school.I hope you found this information let you know a bit about our school. Bye.
