　　Every person has a unique experience and a story to tell about his school life, so do I．

　　We had great fun in growing and learning．Every year we were taken to different places for our school picnics．I was never able to go to these tours but I enjoyed every word of the stories told by my friends．When I was in Grade Eight, I won a couple of prizes in drawing and school competitions．We were also given many projects as class assignments that helped all of us to know more about the subject．I was very fond of cricket(now in football)．My friends and I played cricket in the school campus after school, but at the same time, we all used to get lots of scolding from our headmaster．

　　Every Saturday we used to have our P．T．exercise, and frankly speaking, nobody in my class, even me, had ever liked this．As I reached Grade Nine I realised that I should concentrate on my studies as the next year I was going to take my Board exams．The most memorable day in my life was the day when we held the farewell party for our seniors．Well, now I am in Grade Ten and all set to write my Boards in March．Whenever I recollect all these incidents of school life, I feel very happy and in everybody’s school life, I think there are many ups and downs that mould(浇注)one’s life．School is a place where all of us learn to care and share．“School” is not just a place, but also it is a large dome made up of knowledge, love and affection．I think in everybody’s success, school plays a key role．I can describe my school in “Three S’s”, they are：Small, Sweet and Simple．

　　It's great fun to explore(探索)new places－it feels like an adventure, even when you know you're not the first to have been there．But make sure not to get lost or waste time going round in circles．

　　● Do the map reading if you're being driven somewhere．It'll be easier if you keep turning the map so it follows the direction you' re traveling in．Keep looking ahead so that you can give the driver lots of warning before having to make a turn, or you'll have to move to the back seat．

　　● Get a group of friends together and go exploring．You'll need a good map, a compass(指南针), a raincoat, a cell phone to call for help in case you get lost, and a bit of spare cash for emergencies(应急现金)．Tell someone where you're going before you set out and let them know what time you expect to be back．The test is in not getting lost, not in seeing how fast you can go, so always stick together, waiting for slower friends to catch up．

　　● See if your school or a club organizes orienteering activities, in which you need a map and a compass to find your way．This can be done as a sport, with teams trying to find the way from A to B(and B to C, etc．)in the fastest time, or simply as a spare-time activity．Either way, it's not only good fun, but a great way to keep fit．
