Nick Grissom and his sister Catherine go to Barrington School in Miami, Florida. They think their school is great because the students are cool, the teachers are friendly and there are lots of extracurricular activities. The school has got a fantastic playground, a modern gymnasium and great labs.

Nick: "I like my school very much. My favourite clubs are the Basketball Team and the Adventure Club. My basketball coach is a great teacher. I can play much better now. Catherine doesnt like playing basketball because she cant make a shot. I also enjoy mountain climbing. When I go on a trip with the Adventure Club, I can climb mountains and be closer to nature. Catherine doesn't really like adventures, she thinks they're dangerous.

Catherine: "Alter classes my fiends and I clean the playground. We dont like to see rubbish on the ground. We put the bottles and papers in the bins. We are the members of the Environment Club. This is the greatest club in the school because we help the environment and the endangered species. We sometimes go to the Zoo to help. I want to be a vet to take care of all the animals."
