Устная тема "School and school life"

Some people think that school years are the happiest in their life. As for me, I can not say whether it is right or wrong. I am still young. I have classes in the first half of the day and in the evening I have to do my homework, which takes me several hours. Little by little I start to understand that school plays a very important part in the life of every person, and knowledge gained at school is the key to the future success or failure.

School years may certainly fairly happy. However, there are a lot of problems even today connected with school life. School is the first true experience of the real life. But here at school the person not only accumulates knowledge, school helps the pupils to get on in life and become successful.  At school pupils are taught to be responsible and honest. 

Now I want to say some words about my school. My  school is a general secondary school. It is a three‑storied building. On the ground floor you can see a gym, a dining hall, a cloakroom, a library. There are also primary classes on the ground floor. On the first floor you can visit our school museum. There are a lot of comfortable classrooms of Russian, Mathematics, Geography  and other subjects. The walls of the corridors are decorated with different beautiful pictures. Our classrooms are very cosy and home‑like, because there are lots of flowers and posters on the walls, nice curtains hang on the windows. We help to keep our school clean and tidy by being on duty.

The teachers of our school are professionals. They do their best to help us study. We respect our teachers for being so self‑possessed and democratic. I think that the knowledge I got from my teachers will help me enter the University.

My favourite school subject is -----, because ------. But  I am not very good at -----. It  is difficult  for me to ----.

I spend much time at school. But at school we do not only study. We have some extracurricular activities as well. They are a part of our school life. Our social and cultural life is well organised. We often goto the museums and theatres. I like my classmates and we often spend our time together. I feel that I can rely upon my friends in difficult circumstances. In conclusion I can say that I am very happy at my school.
