He was the first student on in the morning, as we were farthest from school, and the last student off in the evening. I was a teacher myself and it was a comfort to realize the school staff(职员) were all working as hard as I was to provide a safe learning environment.One day I came home from work and waited for my son to get home for a long time. Then I called the school, “Perhaps he’s just a bit late,” said the secretary. “I will call the driver to see if those children are home.” A few minutes later, I answered the phone to hear that the other students were home. Then I called his friends’ parents, to see if perhaps he had gotten off at their stop to play. The answers were all “No.”By that time, it was dark and I was scared. My home was in the mountain areas, and it was said that a wolf had come up somewhere. My husband wasn’t at home, so I forced myself to calm down and decided to go out to look for him. I was about to go out when the telephone rang; it was from the driver. “He’s okay,” I heard. He was asleep on the seats in the back, under a couple of jackets. Since it’s dark, can he spend the night with my family?”I was relieved and agreed. Since my son had a great adventure, the school started giving out a copy of the list to the driver, so he could check off the children’s names when they got off thebus. I think highly of the school for taking the cautionary(警戒的) step ahead; it is a sign of their concern for students, parents, and staff.31.

We then realizes that by getting pupils to run it, we could help teach them important skills at the same time.“ The children will be properly supervised(察看并指导). They love it and it gives them key skills, and the villagers love it because it is such a unique service.”The post office opens daily during the pupils’ schooldays, for 15 minutes during their lunch break, and for another 15 minutes after lessons at 3 p.m.Villager LAAURA Deighton’s five-year-old daughter Grace goes to the school and has been serving customers at the unusual branch.Laura, 31, said, “Grace thinks it’s wonderful and great fun, and she and all the kids learnreally useful social skills.“It is also a great benefit to the community.
