New school

Three days ago, I began school at Carey Baptist Grammar School. It’s in Kew and we have to catch a train to get there. The first day was lonely … very lonely! But every day, it just gets better. I’ve now made three friends, and I’m adjusting to the uniform quite well … though I still think it’s daggy! Assembly was VERY different. Instead of just announcements and stuff, we sang hymns and prayed. It felt like church. Instead of just doing sport on the playground, we catch a bus to a special sports facility in Bulleen. It is part of Carey and has a pool, playing fields, and lots of tennis courts. It’s huge! My teacher’s name is Mr Del Prete. He is very funny.

Even though I miss all my friends, I think Carey will be a great experience. I’ll keep you posted!
