School is a place where children receive knowledge that will be useful to them in adulthood. I have always dreamed of going to the perfect school. For me, the ideal school is a school with smooth beige walls, white ceilings, new furniture and modern classrooms. There, every student is able to gain knowledge without stress and bad grades. In an ideal school, teachers are kind and understanding. It is always comfortable and warm in it. The ideal school also has a good canteen with delicious food. This is what the ideal school means to me.

В идеальной школе учителя добрые и понимающие. В нем всегда уютно и тепло. В идеальной школе также есть хорошая столовая с вкусной едой. Вот что для меня значит идеальная школа.
