Ways to have a happy school life
Your schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you gain the most from them, and ensure you do not waste this wonderful opportunity to learn?
Be positive about school. Don't say things are difficult or boring. Join in lots of activities. Go round the school with a big smile.
Expect to work. School is not a holiday camp. If you are not working, you are wasting your time at school, Teachers cannot make everything enjoyable.
Keep fit. If you do not eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late and do not have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class,
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in front. You cannot finish a race if you rest all the time.
Everyone will fail in some tests, lose some matches and have bad days. Don't make small problems seem very big and important.
Set study targets. Try to make progress bit by bit. Think of small targets: "I will speak in class four times this week." or "I will get two more marks this week."
