My School

My School


By Gladys Akame

My school, G.S. Mile 19, is situated about a hundred metres away from the Tombel-Kumba road. Three buildings make up the school. All of them are built with wood and none of the classrooms has been cemented.

As you approach the school, it looks like a large letter “L”. There are beautiful flower beds decorating the school yard. In front of the headmaster’s office is planted a long bamboo pole from which the green, red and yellow flag of Cameroon floats.

But, the classrooms are poorly equipped. There are only a few benches for pupils to sit on and most of them are bad. Because the floor is not cemented, the classrooms are very dusty even though they are watered when it rains. The headmaster’s office is located between two classrooms. It’s floor is cemented and not dusty like the classrooms!

In this paragraph, I will let you read about morning assembly in our school. We do morning assembly every day, during which, we sing the National Anthem. I like morning assembly because it makes us to remember our forefathers’ land.
