Some schools only have 10 Children at them and some have

Thousands of children at them. So it depends on how many

children are at that school, how many classes there are at that

school.





Playground


Nearly every school has at least 1 playground, some even have 2

or more. Playgrounds with 2 or more normally have a big playground

and a little playground. The big playground is for the older kids and

the little playground is for the younger kids.





Library


A library has heaps of books that you can get out for 2 weeks.

Some libraries have magazines that you can read. Normally your

class goes there once a week to get books out and return books.

If you are a year 4 or up you can get 2 books out but if you are a

year 3 down you can only get 1 out.

school at 5 years old but some start a 4 turning 5. You finish

school at age 12 or 13 depending on when they're birthdays are.

Most kids leave at 12 years old though.
