The school year always starts on September 1st, known as 'Knowledge Day'. It is a major celebration where children wear formal attire. For children of herders, 'going to school' often means moving to a dormitory in the village center for months at a time. Traffic in Ulaanbaatar is heavily influenced by 'school runs'. When schools are on holiday, traffic decreases significantly. Teachers are highly respected. When 'going to school', students often bring small gifts or flowers on special occasions.
The Reflexive Trick
Use 'Сургуульдаа явах' (Surguul-daa yavakh) to sound more like a native speaker when talking about your own school.
Don't forget the 'D'
