Map of EnglandMy pins are so tired I thought I'd take the lift. Hello, my name is Porsche, and I live in England.  England is in the southern and eastern part of the island of Great Britain in the British Isles. 
I am eleven years old, and I am in primary school. Next year I will go to secondary school. We go to school from age five to eleven.  I have a test to take tomorrow because you take tests when you are seven, eleven, fourteen, and sixteen. We wear uniforms when we go to school. Our summer vacation is six weeks long. 
Our food is very simple. Beef, lamb and pork arePotatoes common meats. Sometimes people roast or boil potatoes.
The names of foods often tell what part of England they come from. Yorkshire pudding and Cornish pasties are my favorite foods. Cornish pasties are a flaky crust filled with meat potatoes and vegetables. Yorkshire pudding is a batter cake baked in meat fats.
We play many sports here, like rugby, cricket, and tennis. My personal favorite is soccer. In England, we call it football. Some other things we do for fun include golfing, fishing, and hunting. Some party games are dominoes, darts, and snooker. Snooker is similar to pool. Pants
ShirtFor clothes we wear western clothing, just as kids in America do.   
The weather is never too hot and never too cold. It rains a lot, England is well known for its rainy weather. There is little snow, even in the mountains.Mountain We get the most sunny weather in the southeast coast.   
The language we speak is English except we have different meanings for  words than they do in the U.S.A. Here are some of them.
