One of the important duties of the children is attending school.
While many children complain that they have to get up early and do my homework, education is an important stage in the life of every person.
However, how the training can vary in different countries.
In Japan, for example, there is a certain set of rules that is different from what we are accustomed to. Here, a few of these things you may not know.

Students in Japan are responsible for the cleanliness of classrooms, toilets and corridors. Their responsibilities include sweeping and mopping floors, and maintaining cleanliness of the school Board.

Instead of having to go to the cafe, the students arrange the lunch in the class with their napkins and utensils. Lunch then distributes either the chef or the students themselves. It is unacceptable to throw away food, so you need to eat whatever is on the plate.

Swimming is part of the curriculum. Many schools in Japan have a private pool, where children are taught to swim at the minimum distance. Students who are unable to learn, have to fill the gap in the summer.

This applies not to all schools in Japan, but to many. This means that students are not allowed to wear makeup, colored contact lenses, hair dye, nails, and even put in order eyebrows.

In 1992, the government amended, increasing the weekend to 2 days. In some schools do not adhere to this rule and teach lessons on Saturday.

It is prohibited in all secondary schools. A rule was introduced that students are not distracted from studying.
