Hi, Emily,
School  life in Russia is very interesting. Children go to primary school at the age of 7. School is also compulsory in our country. School is not only lessons and homework but also best friends, clubs and excursions. At the end of each term my class visits some famous places in Rusia. I go to secondary school and my school day begins at 8 o`clock. Usually we have six lessons. Each lesson is 45 minutes and after it we have a break. We wear a uniform at school-dark skirts and blue blouses for girls and dark trousers and blue shirts for boys. The lessons end at two o`clock. Then we go home or to a club. There are a lot of school clubs and they are free. Sending you some pictures of my school.
Bye- bye,
Vanya.
