I live near Treviso (San donà di piave) there isn't much to do we mostly hang out in bars (there are really a lot), cinema or shopping center.. In summer all young people go to the beach wich is just 30 min by bus.. SCHOOL SCHEDULE: We go to school from monday to saturday (sunday is our only day off), I start at 8.10 (other schools at 8.15) at 11.00 we have a break of 15 minutes and we finish at 13.10. Two days a week we do an extra hour and so i finish at 14.00. Here doesn't exist lunch breaks all high schools finish no later than 14.00, only professionals schools (like to become cooks) can even have lunch and lessons in the afternoon. However in high schools it can happen that some classes return to school in afternoon to do 2 hours of gym. This year there were changes for the hours that had become longer (decided by the minister Gelmini) actually there will be a strike to protest against this tomorrow.. The first to hours are of 60 min, the third of 55 min and other of 50 min... I attend a language high school as languages we study eng, german and the third year you choose between french and spanish. We always stay in the same class room (the teachers move into the different classes) we move only go to the gym, the laboratory of chemical and physical or to the computer room. If you don't know high school here is 5 years long and there are different types, mainly are this: -languge school -liceo classico (i don't think there is a translation to this xD Mainly you study greek, latin and a lot of literature) -liceo scentifico (a lot of maths and science) For tests we do writtens plus orals... There around 25 students for classes, same even reach 30.. Oh god i don't know what else to write xDD Hope I helped :)
