English competition

ImageChef.com - Custom comment codes for MySpace, Hi5, Friendster and more to all that have done so well at the English competition! You are all going to take part at the state level competition in January 2009. Roald Dahl once wrote: ''My idea of a perfect school is one that has no children in it at all. One of these days I''ll start up a school like that. I think it will be very useful.'' Can you imagine such a school? What do you think about that? Share your opinion with us.

I think that a school without children can't be called school anymore. In my opinion some pupils don't like school and for them a perfect school is one that has no children in it at all. I can't imagine such a school because the world that we know can't exist without normal schools.

I think that schools arn`t bad, because in schools you allways study something new that you didn`t new before. But in nather way it would be nice,if you wouldn`t need to weak up in the morning and go to school. But sad is to know that some children can`t go in school and they need to work all day like an adult person.

Glad to read your comments, Dhyana and Mija.
I would just like to know your real name, Mija or at least your inicials. I'm happy to know that schools are not bad in your opinion and that you realise that there are some children who would like to go to school but they can't.
And well, getting up early in the morning and going to school is sometimes hard for teachers too.

I agree, and I can't really imagine a school without kids. I mean, what's the point of the school if not to teach children how to handle assignments and tough situations? I think it's also important to learn to work with other people in groups- schoolmates. You need children to be able to do that.

Okay, Roald Dahl is weird. I just don't get the point of school without pupils? Who would he teach, grown ups? Well, whatever.

Thats ridiculous. The whole point of a school is to educate young ppl. If theres no young people in the school there is no point. I think if a school system was less strict then kids in it could be happier nicer and wouldnt annoy the teachers as much.

doesn't schools like that already exist? i mean for those who fail the normal school and then attends to go to school some years later... anyway sometimes school is fun, but most of the time it's just boring however all those years of studying do come in handy.
