Good day, TSS. I'm a prefect from Number Primary School. My name is Rogelio Valencia and I'm in Perth 70. So, Rogelio, I heard you're one of the most well-behaved kids in Number Primary. Is that true? Well, I cannot say the best, but I am one of the best. Rogelio, I heard you're also a prefect. And what responsibilities does that come with? Well, I have to set a really good example for the low-grade students, which means leading by example. I help enforce the school rules. Some days we're like PH to the teachers. And we also help make our schools better. I heard you write exams three times a year for every subject. How do you manage it? How do you manage it? Isn't that hard? Wait a minute. Don't you guys write exams two times a year? No, we only write exams at the end of the year. Well, if you really pay attention to when the teacher teaches, it won't be so hard. Most of the time, I take notes when they mention something about the exams. It's much easier for me. And I heard you guys have classes with over 35 people. Isn't it hard socialising with everyone in the class? Yes, our class consists of 35 to 50 children each class. It's very easy to socialise in my class because most of the children there are my friends. Our classes only range from 10 to 28 kids, so it's very hard socialising with people. And not everyone wants to be your friend. That's a shame, but it's pretty fun having lots of children in your class. But if you even have lots of children in your class, it's pretty hard to focus because most of them make lots of noise. So, well-writing exams for every subject. How does the homework range in class? Well, most of the teachers focus on us to get ahead in the other classes, so they don't really give us too much homework. And in some classes, we get lots of homework. And Regina, what are those classes that you get lots of homework? Social Studies. We get a lot of homework in Social Studies. Social Studies is basically the same as History and Geography in your school. You guys only get a lot of homework in one subject. For us, we get a lot of homework in every subject, such as Math, Geography, History, English, and others. Well, thank you, Regina, for coming on my show, and I wish you good luck in your exams. Thank you for having me on your exams. Your school sounds super chill, so I might be joining there next year. How is Pandemi doing? How has he moved to your school? Well, he's doing pretty good. He focuses more on his studies than his school does. He's doing very well in our school.
