Dargent
is a secondary school in Lyon. It is a city of France, that is two
hours away from Paris by train. There are children from 11 to 15. In
a secondary school there are 4 levels :“6ème,
5ème, 4ème, 3ème”.
My name is Nataha. I’m 14 and I’m in “4ème”.

In a school week, I have 27 hours of lessons. I
don’t go to school on Saturdays, on Sundays and on Wednesday
afternoons. We have one hour of music and art. We have two hours of
P.E in “4ème” but in “6ème”there
are 4 hours of P.E (every year we must run and I hate that !)

We learn two foreign languages, but in my
school there aren’t many choices. We can only choose between Spanish
and German. English is compulsory in France. We can also learn Latin
from “5ème” and Greek from "3ème".
On Monday afternoon we have two hours of French - it is very boring !!
Then I must hurry because I have my ice-skating lesson at 6:00 p.m- I
finish school at 5:00 p.m ! We can eat lunch in the canteen, but it
isn’t very good !
