My Primary School

The primary school I attended was right behind my village, separated only by a small moat.

The classrooms were one‑story buildings, built with mud, wooden sticks, and wheat straw. The desks and stools we used were made of the same materials.

The classrooms were built by the villagers nearby, and the desks and stools were made by our teachers and us students during summer breaks.

The school had a front yard, which was actually our playground.

There were only three teachers in the school. One was a state‑employed teacher, while the others were locally hired. The former was also the headmaster and rarely taught.

There were five grades in the school, and each grade had only one class, with around twenty to thirty students.

There were only two courses for students of all grades: Chinese and Mathematics.

The school served children from four nearby villages, all within walking distance.

Usually, we left for school from the village entrance on the southern side of our village, but in winter we could walk directly across the frozen moat on the northern side of the village.

That school no longer exists. I don’t even know when it was closed.
