my school

Motueka High School

The school in New Zealand plays a important role especially for every exchange student. My school has two women who care about the internationals and everything around us. The school has the responsibility for us and that's why they need to know much about our activities. If you for example want to do a trip during your holidays you need to fill 2 pages out about when you are where and what you do and they also need to give you permission for all your activities (skydiven, bungee jumping - even horse rising). But that isn't complicated with the help of your homestay co-ordinator.

The school system here is very different from Germany. My school day starts with the form class - the teacher do the attendance and read the headings of the 'school news'. If you want to hear more to a topic you need to say "Yes.". This class is very boring and also useless. Nobody listen, everybody talk or check the mobile phone and that 15 minutes.

Also the breaks are quite long, but i don't want to tell you too much, because i will write a post about my subjects and a normal schooldays :)
