I am a Year 5 student now!

I am a Year 5 student now! Last Wednesday, I became a Year 5. Everything was new. The teacher, our class and even our classmates!

For us, this is like a totally new year. But, obviously it's not a real new year. This is called a school academic year. Anyway, for every new year, you get a new teacher. This could be a new teacher or one you've had before. We've got a new teacher. She used to be Miss Yates but now she is Mrs Vokins! She is also our school Yr3&4 school gymnastics team teacher. When I was in Yr4, I got chosen to be in the school gymnastics team along with my friend Milly. Miss Kennedy is teaching Foxes I like Mrs Vokins and I will enjoy having her as my teacher(although she makes a big fuss about having to be extra neat).

When we change year groups, we also change classrooms. In every year group, we have two classes. The Year 5 ones are Foxes and Badgers. Natalie, Maria, Briony and I are in Badgers whereas Milly and Anise are in Foxes(will explain separations in next paragraph). Our classroom is bigger than Foxes'. It has more space and a bigger 'Reading Corner'. Our classroom has got good cold drinking water that's delicious. I think it's the best classroom I've ever been in!

Now, when it's the start of every two years, we mix the two classes together and so there will be some people from each class together in their new year. So, that's why, me and my friends have been separated as you can see in the paragraph above. So, I have made some new friends. We have voted for the new school council for our class, and, surprisingly, the girl that has the most votes(Kristen) used to be a Woodpecker(Year4) and the boy that has the most votes(Jaden) used to be an Owl(Year4)! I enjoy being in these new, changed for I have already made 5 new friends, Alice, Amy-Louise, Anjili, Ayler and Tharsha! I think I will love the rest of this academic year!
