But the school is running their lives, by making everyone be up, dressed, breakfasted and at school by a horrifically early time of day. When I was in elementary school in Australia (9am-3.30pm) I managed to do plenty of sports, public library visits and time running around the street with friends, while also getting to wake up at a reasonable hour (7am) and have a leisurely breakfast and some play time before leaving for school at 8.30am.
