WHAT OUR NEW YEAR 7s SAY
This is the best school
in the world!
I was worried about starting secondary school but by the
time I got here I knew lots of teachers and it
wasn’t hard at all. I like it because we have lots of
subjects and the school is really nice with lots of space to play.
I like all the things
we have already done this year and
science was great!
I have made lots of new friends.
The camping was brilliant!
It feels more grown up and I am already learning
loads.
DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT!
