Culture note: The school day In Britain, child ren go to school from Monday to Friday. The school day for most children sta rts at around nine o'clock, and fi nishes at arou nd three o'clock. Children usually eat their breakfast at home but some schools have a breakfast club w hich pu pils can go to before the school day beg ins if their parents have to go to work early. Children have an hour for lunch, and an opportu nity to play in th e playground . They usua lly have t he choice of eating a hot meal from the school canteen, or a packed lunch brought from home. Some schools provide optional after-school activities for children, which is particularly helpful if their parents are working and are not able to pick them up immediately.
