5. Yes, we have a playground at school.

6. Yes, we think so!

7. We play football, we go horseback riding, do our homework, we attend the Children's Red Cross (scout- like activities), do our chores, are with friends, listen to music, sometimes we have friends on sleep-overs, we paint and much more.

8. We are 72 pupils at our school.

9. There isn't usually that much snow here, so we can always walk. Sometimes there is a lot of snow in the mountains and we have avalanges. Then we have to wait until the roads are cleared before we go anywhere. Sometimes that can take a day or two. But that never happens on the road to school.

10. We leave home at ca. eight o'clock.
