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 />
