I like school where taught me a lot of meaningful lessons in my life. I like school where I sent all of my childhood memories with my friends. I like school where I cried a lot on my first day at school. I love my school.
I like the school because i can share with my friends and have good memories with they, i miss it because university its more complicate and difficult than the school.
l like my school.It is new and modern.There are about 800 pupils there and l have many good friends.
I like school. I learn things there, I've got some friends. But it's mostly because I get lonely in my house so I prefer staying in school.
Yes, I love it very much because at there, I can play with my friends, study many subjects and have a lot of useful information.
Yes i have got a wonderful school. i love my school. i have my every solace friend over there. It comes in the proximity of our home. whenever I get a holiday from the school I feel boar at home.
I really like my school. I like English, art and all, but I don't seem to make true best friends.
i love school, i thing its one of the best things that i am blessed with. i like learning new thing always and what a better place to do this more than school, you can learn a lot of stuff in their including different sciences, social skills and making a lot of friends
I love my school. I love to go to school as, I can meet my friends and learn new topics.
I have started studying at High school for 1 month. This school' environment is new with me and many things is different from I thought. The bad things I recognize maybe more than the good things. So I'm disappointed and seem don't like studying as before.
No, I have so many problems with my friends. They often think that I'm weird for my hobby I like. I like to reads books, but they think that I'm nerd. I like to watches some anime but they think I'm childish. I like to study at class, but they think that I'm making up. So actually I don't have any close friends at my class, sometimes I wonder if I'm wrong or they're kinda heartless people?

Always I like school, my school life. I enjoy my friend and my teacher. They are awesome.
Sometimes I left school before close over class time and we play cricket on our school ground. When our teacher realized this object, they were very angry.
I love going to school bcoz I can play and chat with my friends.Although I have an older sister ,ahe is 8years older than me.So she couldn't play with me and we didn't get time to spend together.That's why I loved to go to school to see my friends.I will never forget my first day of school.I was very frightened and I grabbed my mother's hand tidely.I was so scared I was left alone by mom. When teachers told parents to return home and leave children,many children start to cry. I was also one of them.But I couldn't cry anymore when teacher scold the big one who was sitting in front of me. There's a stick in teacher's hand .The big girl crying heavily is one year older than me and all other students.She came last year to attend school. But she cried alot last year too.That's why her mother took her back home and decided to take a break one year start another year. So all of the teachers know her very well. She was scolded by head teacher.So my tears didn't dare to come out more.I watched Moms back until it's disappeared .I remember that moment just like a scene from a movie. It's my sad memory of first day of school.Although I love going to school,I don't like my country's education system.Students have to learn by heart.The answer is all the same.Teachers never teach critical thinking and don't let us think outside.They are very strict and just like a book. I hate this kind of teaching system.But new curriculum is started from this year.I hope everything will be changed.Cross my fingers.
Will schools make kids happy? Good schools or bad schools, that is the question...

Yes, I like my school because there I learn a lot, make friends, have many good teachers, and many interesting books to read. My first day was when I was in Primary. First I was in class 1C but my teacher was quite bad and angr. So my parents decided to change me to class 1B and there was a good teacher who has taught my older brother. His name was Luis. I was not the only who changed of class. Also, some friends decided to change of class. So I wasn't alone but we were 6 years and we started to cry a lot. I don't know why but we cried. Then, we kept calm and went into the classroom. I was surprised because there were a lot of people and they were watching us. My teacher said us to sit and he gave us a colouring page. I remember I was drawing happily and suddenly a child touch me and said me: "Can you lend me your purple colour, please?" and I said him: "Of course". When it was break time we go out together and became friends. Actually he's my best friend and I'm in my last year, in class 5B. Thank you for reading!!

Hi monkey94. Sorry to hear that. You must be having a hard time. Please remember that your school is not your life. It’s only one part of it. If you can’t find friends there at the moment, maybe you can find friends in other sports activities or hobby clubs. Have you ever tried any of those? Even if you are only a little bit interested in those sports or hobbies, you can still go to those activities for the social opportunities. People are usually attracted to others who share the same interests, so it may be easier to find friends there.
Don’t think too much about being good-looking! Do you really want to attract people who only like you because you are good-looking? They may not be good friends to you.
And if you get on well with your teacher, maybe you can let him or her know how you feel in class. The teacher may be able to help – maybe he or she can let you sit with some nice students, or give you some extra encouragement.
Good luck :)
