FOCUS ON PRELIMINARY

A

My primary school was in Via Caiù, in Cervignano del Friuli, not too far from the city centre.

The atmosphere at school was happy and cozy, both for the teachers and for the colored walls.

The school building wasn't very modern: the outer walls were ugly and discolored, while the inner ones were colored and barely painted.

In the school weren't a lot of rooms, so services were scarce. In fact, there was only a little gym, a drawing workshop and a little cinema room.

My favourite teacher was Elisabetta, my Religion teacher, because she was very funny and friendly to us.

My favourite subject was English because I've always loved learning foreign languages. Unfortunately, the teacher wasn't very good.
