“Today started like any other day at St Peter's. The same fantastic welcome in the morning as you enter the classroom and the familiar faces sitting around the room. When the teacher finished taking the register we all went up to assembly, grabbing our coats on the way out. “The winning house of the bonus cup is...” Looking around the room you see fingers crossed and eyes shut, everyone is hoping that their house will win. “Wren.” Not us this time, but never mind. Everyone cheers even if it wasn't their house that won. Assembly ran on a bit late, let's run down to Maths! Oh no, better not, teacher coming! Now engrossed in rounding numbers. Once it's clicked you find it so much easier. We started with Mental Maths and I added the 30th working out to the back page of my book. As soon as Mr Neeson said it was the end of lesson, we all went outside for break. Break time is when friends like to catch up with the news from the weekend. Everyone enjoys break time, however, we mustn’t be late for Art and we need to get our aprons on the way up. “Today in Art, we will pretend we are cavemen and make pictures of pre-historic animals”, said Mrs Tyson. So we put on our art aprons and got nice and messy and by the end of the lesson we had created some fantastic pictures that looked like they had fallen off a cave wall. Knowing we had English next, we got cleaned up and skipped down the path to English. We're just finishing the Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, which I've thoroughly enjoyed. My favourite part is where Scrooge realises what it's like to be like the Crachet family. After English I go down to lunch with my friends, where the cooks serve some delicious meals for us to enjoy. Following lunch we have an hour long break to chill or run around doing things we have to do before lessons start again. Some days, like today, I love as I have my singing lesson. We are so lucky at St Peter’s that we have the opportunity to learn to play any instrument we choose. Over the holidays we were set Science prep. We were to come up with an invention so that if you dropped an egg out the first floor window it wouldn't break and now we have a Science lesson to test them out. We've dropped six eggs out, five of them have survived and the other one is in pieces on the floor. Once we had dropped all of them out, I counted three eggs lying cracked on the floor. It was a great lesson - we had lots of fun and before we new it, it was the end of the lesson. Another break for us now, this one isn't an hour long though, it's twenty minutes. Just enough time to get everything ready for our final lesson, French. We are learning all about places and how to ask where things are in a town. This is always fun as we pretend we're in a French town asking where things are. Right now I'm in a prep session finishing homework before we go home and, wow, what a day it's been!”
