Breaktime in my school by Michael O P1A

It is always a very exciting period that comes after the first three lessons. 

We play different kinds of games like skipping and swinging. 

Some children are also seen running and jumping in the playground, playing football and handball. 

The teachers usually guide us as we play, to make sure we are not hurt. 

When the break-over bell goes all the pupils stop playing and go back to their classes.Break time in my school

They all tried but none got it right. The teacher gave a hint that it has something to do with 29th February. Sam shouted, Öh dear, I forgot it was a leap year that comes once every 4 years like the Olympic games and the football world cup competition.Leap Year (Jibril P5 from Bankys Schl, Nigeria)

OH DEAR! I FORGOT IT WAS LEAP YEAR
Tori Vega always forget things easily. She would forget to feed her dog, forget lunch, forget it was Saturday and wasn't meant to go to school, so you can guess she was a bit of nuisance. One day, her friend, Angela visited her and told her that her tenth birthday was coming up on the 29th of February and that she was having a party. She also told her that Tori was to be the guest, she also warned Tori not to forget her birthday, Tori promised not to forget her birthday.
She woke up forgetting it was Angela's birthday, though she wondered why people were making noise and exploding fireworks around 4pm in the evening. Angela came knocking at her door with tears in her eyes. Angela asked her for the reason of her absence during her party, Tori gave a long shriek saying “oh dear! I forgot it was leap year”. Tori lost a good and kind friend like Angela and missed the parade that they always had on leap years. After this incident Tori learnt to keep records and not forget.Toluwani P4 (Bankys Schl, Nig.)
