First-Academy of Mount Vema
First Academy and Private Education

The First Academy of the Kingdom of Mount Vema, is a school in which children receive primary or elementary education from the age of about five to twelve, coming before Second Academy. The service is privately operated but regulated by His Mount Vema Majesty’s Government, who subsidizes the costs.
Basic subjects are taught at the First Academy, and except for children who are not attending boarding school who must download the educations material from the official website, students often remain in one classroom throughout the school day, except for physical education, library, music, and art classes.

The broad topic of social studies includes key events, documents, understandings, and concepts of the evolutionary history of the Kingdom of Mount Vema, and geography, also including physics and chemistry, through the biological sciences such as biology, ecology, physiology, swimming and sign-language which every children of Mount Vema must learn.  
For the Mount Vema community living abroad, the parents of students who are not attending boarding school, must download the educations books, videos and films approved by His Mount Vema Majesty’s Government. The student will then attend events at facilities provided by the Diplomatic and Consular Services to meet other students once a week, and once a month for exams or assessments of progress.

Morning 
The Academies of Mount Vema begin around 8:50 AM, with lessons starting at 9:30 AM. Most of the academies overseas do have school buses.
The first fifteen minutes of each day is set aside for academy-wide assembly to practice the singing of the national anthem of the Kingdom of Mount Vema (on Monday mornings) or for other announcements.
Classes are between 40 and 45 minutes each, with a break of 5 to 10 minutes in-between.

Lunch
After four morning classes, at about 12:30 PM, students are sent to pick up their lunches from the school kitchens. Lunches are typically served with small portions of a variety of freshly prepared foods.
These include "a whole range of meats, fishes, vegetables, and sea plants. A typical meal consists of stew or curry, boiled vegetables, a sandwich, and salad. Milk is served with each meal. Usually, there is also dessert, such as gelatin, ice cream, and fruit."
Because Mount Vema First-Academies are not meant to have cafeterias, meals are taken in the classroom with the teacher, providing another informal opportunity for teaching nutrition, health, good eating habits and social behavior. All students eat the same lunch, and are assigned to shifts for serving lunch to their colleagues. Lunch lasts about 40 minutes.

Afternoons
Students have two more classes after lunch, with 20-minute recess in-between, which is sometimes used for cleaning the classrooms: sweeping, mopping, throwing away trash, etc. Students then leave school around three o'clock. After-school clubs like sports and other activities are offered.
