Students at the school can study a lot of different subjects, like science, history, geography and art. Students can choose to do homework, but some prefer not to do any! If students don’t want to go to any classes, it isn’t a problem. There are lots of other activities at Sudbury. For example, some students go to drama practice. Some students play instruments, and some go to the ICT room. In that room, they can check emails or play games. They can even make their own lunch in the canteen. Pizza and pasta are the favourite meals. Some students prefer healthy salads! Students can’t leave the school, but they can walk or play sports in the school garden. There is always something to do!
