experience you have had at school.

SAMPLE:

I had very pleasant experiences at my school. The first lovely experience I had
was when I did community service last year. I joined the school English club,
and tutored some primary school students for a semester. Their English
became better, and they were much more confident in English lessons. The
second memorable experience I had was going on a camping trip with my
classmates. We went to a village about 20 km from our school. Here, we put
up tent, decorated it and we also won the competition of tent decoration. We
sang and danced and took a lot of photos. I also remember winning the first
prize in the school chess competition that year. The school then presented me
with a chess set. All these pleasant experiences will go with me forever.
