My School

I study at one of the oldest schools of our city. It is more than 80 years old.

At first it was an old wooden building, but it was burnt down during the war. After the war a new two-storey building was built. Then, in the 1960-s, the third floor was added to it. Ten years later another addition was made including a large gym, a spacious assembly hall, a library and a canteen.

On the ground floor of our school there are classrooms for different subjects, such as History, Mathematics, Russian Language and Literature, Foreign Languages and Crafts. Our classrooms are large although there are a few smaller ones, where we have English and German. There are Physics, Biology and Chemistry labs on the first floor. Our three Computer Science classrooms are also situated on the first floor. On the second floor there are Geography, History, Arts classrooms and our school museum.

We have a lot of opportunities to do sports at our school. There is a gym, an outdoor football pitch and a sports ground for playing basketball and volleyball. It would be great to have a swimming pool, but there isn’t any. Although it is the only downside.

Our school is a great place for children because of its dedicated teachers. Most of them are kind and respectful to pupils. Our teachers are always ready to answer our questions and listen to our problems.

School is a place where we all spend a great deal of our life and often make lifelong friends. I believe I will always remember my school.

Good day, my name is Christina. I study at school. I'm ...years old. Now i want to tell you about my ambitions. I like sport, music, games, reading books, but more then everything i like learning russian language. It's my native language, and i'm trying to improve it. At lessons i usually answer the questions, having the dictations, listening to the teacher. I think that everyone should know their own language, to properly construct sentences and speak intelligently. This year i decided - I'll take a part in all Russian olympiads and competitions. I want to know what i can, and i want to test my strength. Russian language - is a rich language. I love it, I think it's very beautiful and harmonious. Learning the language is a pleasure!
