Schools have a recess or moning interval about 11:00 am. It usually lasts about 15-20 minutes. The children here have a little free time with a modicum of staff supervision. It can be a time of frentic activity for younger children. At the secondary schools it is somewhat more restrained, although there is often time for a quick pick up game on nice days. Some of the students may have a snack. Most secondary schools open their snack bars or canteens. Often the girls will have a chat either among themselves or in mixed groups. Boys will often kick a football around or have a range of other activities like fussball, bat a littlecricket, play a quick game of basketball or other action activity.
