In samurailand, classrooms are cleaned everyday after classes by school children themselves in elementary, junior-high, and high schools.

Classrooms, corridors, and even tolilets are cleaned by themselves.
They sweep the floor, wipe desks and dust blackboard rubbers.
Children of years 1 & 2 in elementary schools are exempted from the job. Their rooms are cleaned by older children.

I did and my daughter does there.
I had no question about it though nobody likes it.

But here in England, they don't.
Why not?

Rather than 50 cm deep we may better say 50 cm high, as the pool is surrounded by concrete wall and the surface of the water is above knees, which would be very dangerous at the time of earthquake and never exist in samurailand.

Every day a few old men come to the pool and remotecontrol theire boats.
Old men should play shogi or go or raise bonsai.

Industrialised since long.

No wonder people aren't afraid of the nature and don't worship it.

Did they do before?

I am an old samurai.
Samurai must not speak much.
