A day at Festus Gonteb School
Lina tells us about an ordinary school day
6.00
I get up and take a bath in cold water. If we have electricity, then we can warm up some water. I cannot wait to go to school since we get a warm breakfast at school. I am walking to school with my friends from my neighborhood.
07.30
Before school starts, we get our breakfast. It is a warm porridge, which to warm us up and give us enough energy for school. The breakfast we get is funded through fundraising events. We then wait for our teacher to open the classroom. We sing a couple of songs and pray together before we start.
08.45
Now we move onto the next subject. We are having Mathematics, Geography, Physical Science, Life Science, Social Religion, Arts Class, Music Class, Sports, English, Afrikaans class and even some indigenous languages.
10.00
Now we have our break. We eat our snacks, talk with our friends and play games together.
10.45
Our next class begins. Our mind is refreshed after the break and we are ready to learn more. We love going to school and learn new things. It is truly a privilege.
12.30
Now its lunchbreak and I will walk home with my friends. On few afternoons, we have classes as well. When we do not have school, we enjoy our free time with friends and do our homework.
