10-12yo children are still in elementary school.
schools start at about 8~8:30am, study 3~4 subjects in the morning, eat lunch, then study 1~2 subjetcts in the afternoon.
some kids have activities after school at schools, others play at school ground or go home and play with friends. Most of them these days privately take some lessons, such as piano, ballet, karate, swimming, etc.. and even go to after-schools to study more.
evening, they do homework and watch TV and stuff.
Hope it helps
