My class is the one you saw near the fence when you visited our school last Sunday. I was here when they started you know, one day, these men came with the tools you use to dig, and dug this huge square outside our class. My teacher says it’s a rectangle, did I spell that right?
Then one morning this really big truck came and dropped very many bricks, I tried counting them but I had not finished by break time so I did not finish. But I raised my hand in class and asked my teacher, she’s very nice, and helps me color, I asked her and she told me they were making a new school building for the big students, she called them high school, and I guess that’s correct because their classes are way up there.
I watched them build you know, every day, brick by brick, the building got higher, i wanted to help carry but its real heavy, teacher says its made of stone and cement, that’s some dust that’s made into the brick and wall.
So the building is finished now, its real beautiful, you should see the colors inside, they are all painted, and some are very high, now I can see why they call it high school. And I have to study hard now, work on my drawings, make sure my colorings are well done, and learn how to add up real well so that I can go to the next class and soon go to high school. I will be all tall by then and I will know a lot.
On Sunday I told my grandmother about the new school, and about Rotary, they are very nice people you know, and now it is possible for me to go to high school. Grandma says to say thank you. Oh and I also learnt a new word, opportunity. It means that it will be possible for me to get more education and take care of my grandma.
