Year 7

Year 7

Year 7 was an interesting year for me but like any year it has its ups and downs. At the start when you first see your secondary school, the first difference from primary school you see, is the size. When I saw mine, I wondered if I would be able to walk out of the school without getting lost. But when you step in the main hall it feels just like your old school just bigger.

Of course everyone is nervous, which is normal, some for schoolwork, some on tests, some on making friends but for most people it is all of them. For my school they got every single student that were joining (there were 110 of them) and put us in a hall so we could "socialise" with people that we have never even seen before. I know, the idea sounds spine-chilling but we had no choice. Luckily I knew 1 person who went to the same school as did but she was weird so I much rather have made new friends. 

But you just have to be bold when trying to make friends otherwise you will end up not having any. In primary school there is always someone, no matter how shy you are, who will come up to you
