one o'clock, five o'clock, eight o'clock or
1 o'clock, 5 o'clock, 8 o'clock

Mixing the forms confuses the reader: 1:00 and 17:00 and 8 o'clock.

1) I leave school at one o' clock.
2) I go to dance lessons at 17:00.
3) I take dance lessons on Monday.
4) At eight o'clock I have a small bun for breakfast.
5) In the afternoon I study.
6) I pack up my school bag before going to school.
7) I take the bus to school.
8) At 8 o'clock my lessons begin.
9) At 8:00 p.m. I finish my dinner.
10) When I arrive home....
11) By 8:00 a.m. I am at school and I remain there until 13:00.
12) At 7:30 I get up, go into the bathroom, and after that I have breakfast.
13) In the morning, I get up at 7:30, get ready, and then go to school.
14) I take a mini-bus to Rome for my football training.
15) I get up and then wash.
16) This morning I have French and Math.

24) On a typical day, I get up at 7:00.
25) I finish school at 13:00.

I recommend people using numeric figures to express time instead of words in most situations because all(?) people knows numbers and it is much easier/faster to get the meaning.

Compare:
seventeen (minutes) to four (in the morning)
3:43am

thirteen thousand seven hundred and forty-five
13,745

Look careful. It is supposed to thank him/her only.
The heading states "in reply to Ripley"
