The Istituto Comprensivo Marco Ulpio Traiano

Our school is an institute called 'Istituto Comprensivo Marco Ulpio Traiano' comprehending three different degrees of the Italian school system:

  • the scuola dell'infanzia (for children to 6 years)
  • the scuola primaria (for children to 11)
  • the scuola secondaria di 1° grado (for boys and girls up to 14).

Our school is in a suburb of Rome; we are not more than 7 kilometres from the Tyrrhenian Sea.

We like our school very much. It's a pretty new school built a few years ago. The school is painted light blue. It has plenty of many useful, nice and sunny classrooms. There is also a big theatre where we usually perform shows before Christmas holidays or at the end of the school year, in June. There is a gym, where we often play basketball or handball. There are some big halls where we can work together, more than a class, during music lessons or to draw or paint something. In places like these we can watch home videos or prepare our shows.

Next to the main building there is a big garden with an ecological oasis with a pond and a lot of plants. Behind the school there is a sports ground where we can play football spending our playtime or during the gym lesson. The scuola dell'infanzia and the scuola secondaria di 1° grado are very close to us: in fact the one is the same building and the other is a separate building a few metres away.
