Starting <strong>School</strong> at BSB<br />
Alex, Year 10<br />
September first was the day school started at<br />
BSB. This was very unusual for me since the<br />
school I went to before, Mark Twain, just up the<br />
road, started two weeks later, on the fifteenth of<br />
September.<br />
I came to the start of school very enthusiastic, but<br />
I was also pretty scared because I didn’t know<br />
anyone there.<br />
On the first day I met some of my new colleagues<br />
at the gate, my new form teacher and as I soon<br />
discovered my English teacher Mr Peet, and then<br />
went into school to meet the rest of the teachers.<br />
The first day at a new school is always a bit weird<br />
because no one knows you, and you really don’t<br />
know anyone else either.<br />
Gradually, however, it gets easier and better as<br />
every day passes as you make new friends and<br />
slowly get used to the new teaching system. Before<br />
coming to this school I had to choose two subjects<br />
for my IGCSE exam at the end of Year 11. In the end,<br />
I chose Business Studies and Music.<br />
Later I found out that everyone in my class chose<br />
Business Studies, probably because everyone<br />
thinks knowing how to create and run a business is<br />
very important these days. Im glad I chose buisness<br />
studies, but I’m also really happy I chose music,<br />
because we have a really cool teacher, Mr Des<br />
Mulvany, who makes school a fun place to be.<br />
All in all, I can honestly say that coming to BSB was<br />
the best choice I could have made.<br />

BSB first ever Healthy Bake Sale<br />
This term Year 4 is presenting the<br />
first ever healthy bake sale! We had<br />
big discussions about what it means<br />
to be healthy and what we should<br />
eat. So we decided to have a healthy<br />
bake sale.<br />
We brought cheese and crackers, fruit on<br />
sticks, salads, olives, muffins with fruit<br />
and lots of other good food. It was a big hit<br />
and mostly everything was eaten. However,<br />
we did notice that the chocolate covered<br />
bananas were the first to go!<br />

BSB’s 1st ever Healthy Bake sale was tasty and<br />
nutritious.<br />
Year 6 celebrating their Bake Sale<br />
Our bake sale was first one of the year and we had all<br />
sorts of cakes, cupcakes, cookies and much more. Many<br />
sweets went really well and quickly. We ended up with<br />
667 Ron and we all want to spend the money on different<br />
things. I personally think that it was the greatest bake<br />
sale of the year.<br />
