@tanguatlay,
In the UK we would usually use at, occasionally we might say in, but we would never say on.

Prepositions are mostly interchangeable. Some languages don't even have a selection. For example, in English we think there is a difference between a knife on the table and a knife in the table, but Spanish makes no distinction; the knife is in the table and that is the only way to say it.
