My life


School


School of course is an important part of my life, I go to school to get a good education and afterwards a good job (hopefully). At the moment I go to Frogn vgs, my third year as you probably know. I think there are positive and negative sides of going to school here.

I think there are more positive than negative tings to tell, so I'll start with them. The best thing about going to Frogn is that it's very close to my home, it only takes about 10 minutes to walk to school from my mothers house, and about 30 minutes from my fathers. I love that I don't have to take the bus for houres to come to school, it starts early ehough as it is.
Then it is my friends! Because I live in Drøbak I've got a lot of friends at school that I knew from "ungdomsskolen". It's really nice to keep the contact, and have people you know around. In the same time I'm glad there are people from other places studying at Frogn as well, to meet new people is allways fun. In the picture you can see some of my friends on the last day of school before summer in our first year at Frogn vgs. :)
Atmy school every student has access to computers when they're at school, wich makes the shoolwork much easier. I also think that the teachers are talented and that I learn alot! The system called "fagdager" is really great, with only one or two subjects a day. We then don't have to bring a whole lot of books every day, and we've got the time to study the theme in depth.
The school environment is good in every way! And I also like the colourful windows, floors and walls in the building!

There are few negative things to say about Frogn and how it's to go there, but as I mentioned earlier, I think the classes starts too early. I hate to wake up early!
Frogn also is a quite small school, where everyone knows everything that's happening. If you've made a mistake, and someone get to know it, everybody knows about it the next day. Another bad thing about Frogn, I think, is that there are no recycling of garbage there. That is kind of sad when the school is so good in other ways! I belive that if the students are willing to put their litter in the right part of the wastebasket if they only knew that it'll help the school to do something good in the environment.
There are no bell at Frogn that tells us when to go to class. I can't deside if I think that's good or bad, but I think actually most good. It makes us feel more free!

Now you know what I think of my school. I think the positive sides are stronger and more than the negative sides, and I'm really happy to go to this school!

I'm glad you have decided that the positives outweigh the negatives as far as our school is concerned!

The thing about recycling is something you should definitely try to take up trough the student council. If you already have, and nothing has happened, please try again!

The English term for "fagdag" is "block scheduling", I think (you schedule the classes for a subject as one block rather than many separate periods over the week).
