Subject:My school
Hi,Li Zijun,
Thanks very much for your email.I really enjoyed reading it.I think we have a lot in common.I wonder if our school life is similar too.
I go to a big high school in Sydney called Maylands High School.There are about 1000 students and 80 or so teachers.My class has 25 students in it,which is normal for a Year 11class.In the junior school there are about 30 students in a class.
In the senior high school we have lots of subjects to choose from,like maths,physics,chemistry,biology,history,German,law,geography,software design,graphic arts and media studies.(Different schools sometime have different optional subjects.) English is a must for everyone and we have to do at least three other subjects in Year 11and 12.At the end of Year 12 we sit for a public exam called the High School Certificate.
As well as school subjects,most of us do other activities at school such as playing a sport,singing in the choir or playing in the school band.We can also belong to clubs,such as the drama club,the chess club and the debating society.
We have a lot of homework to do in senior school to prepare for our exam,so unless I have basketball practice,I usually go straight home and start studying.I arrive home about 4pm,make myself a snack and work till 6.Then I help the family to make dinner and we all eat together.I'm usually back in my room studying by 8pm.I stop at about 10o'clock and watch TV or read a book for half an hour to relax.On Saturdays,I usually go out with my family or with friends and I sleep in till late on Sunday mornings.Then it's back to the books on Sunday afternoon.
How about you?What's your school life like?Do you have a lot of homework?What do you do to relax when you're not studying?I'm looking forward to finding out.
Your Australian friend,
Terrie
