There’s arithmetic and social studies, Which are enjoyed by everybody. Then off to the football field we go, The forwards all standing in a row. Next behind are all the defences Which guard the goal like fences. When the bell at last has rung, In we go with a merry song, Off inside with a steady gait, Soon beside our seats we all stand straight. Then out we get our health books And study how our body from the inside looks. Soon we can get ready our singer And sing until it’s time for dinner. At noon the skaters go to the rink And the others’ heart does sink. When the bell rings they take off their skates And if they don’t hurry, they’ll be late.

Then out with the readers and learn to read For if we can’t read we’ll never succeed. Then our English books out we take And a funny little limerick make. Next we have to learn to spell, We have to study hard if we can’t spell very well. There’s German which we must learn to read And also know how to talk it indeed. Then arrives the four o’clock And the long homeward walk Which never makes us sad, For going home always makes us glad. Iris Reimer Grade 6 SCHOOL LIFE’S RACE Room Two is as busy as a busy bee-hive And the grades in number are only five. We all must go through school life’s race And all our tasks and problems face. In school we have to work so fast To make a good mark in the test. And we all our best have tried To make our teacher satisfied. 22
