Langtree School and time

Tuesday, 10 June 2008

Langtree School was very great school. They had a section of the school dedicated to scientists and they have a lot of scientific instruments and also they have a computer laboratory, so each and every student has their own computer to work from. They have more computers than my school. In my school we don’t learn subjects like geography or history, we do have social studies which has some history.

I have noticed that time in the UK is quite different from Ghanaian time. When it is 7pm in Ghana, when you go to my village, if they are not working, then they are asleep, unless they have television. You will not find many people walking along the roads at that time. The people here do everything faster, like walking, or at work, everything is fast!
