Yinfa Home for the Aged

stay at school

Classes are over at 3:05p.m., but we don’t always go home at that time. Many of us stay at school. Some do their homework, some work or play in the school. We clean our classrooms, work in the school garden, write for the wall newspaper, or go to the playground to play ball games.

Today is the first day of the week. We usually go to Yinfa Home for the Aged on this day. We read newspapers to the old people, talk to them, help them wash their clothes and clean their rooms. The old people like to be with us. We feel happy, too, because we can help others.

I am Sandy. I study at Shanghai International School. I live at school from Monday to Thursday. Every Monday morning I take the school bus at half past six. The bus gets to school at a quarter to eight. We have twenty-four classes every week. Our classes begin at eight o’clock in the morning. At a quarter past three in the afternoon, classes are over. After class, we have a lot of activities. At four thirty on Friday afternoon, we leave our school for home. My cousin Helen and I study at the same school. We take the same bus.
