My Town: Hilltown

Hi everyone!

My name is Sharon and I live in Hilltown. It’s in the south of England. It isn’t a very big town. Its population is a little over 9000.

There are about 30 shops in Hilltown and there are three supermarkets. You can buy everything you need in the town. There are two banks and a post office in Main Street. There is a police station and a library, too. The only chemist’s and the florist of Hilltown are in Main Street, too. 

You can find a big market where you can buy fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and dairy products. I don’t like shopping for food, so I never want go to the big market, but my parents make me go with them!

There are three churches in the town centre, and there is a park with a children’s playground, too. In our town, you can find some restaurants and there are five cafes. My favourite café is Icecave. It’s in Park Street and the ice-cream here is fantastic.

There are three elementary and two high schools in Hilltown. I’m a high school student and my school is in Mill Street. We have got a very nice building. Next to our school, there is a sports centre. Every Wednesday afternoon, we play badminton.

If you want to see a film, you can go to the cinema in our town, but unfortunately there aren’t any theatres here. I like living in Hilltown, because it’s a calm and neat place, and people are friendly.
