Students’ Views
I know what you’re thinking... ‘Arghh!’
You’re about to face one of the biggest, most amazing events in
your childhood life, and all you think is ‘Arghh!’ Well, I don’t
blame you, that’s exactly how I felt too. To be honest, there’s no
need to be scared, It’s the best school EVER!
By Abbie Houghton
This is what happened on my first day:
I got to school, my stomach felt like a butterfly zoo (I don’t know what that’s supposed to be …),
and I went to my form room . Form is a group of people who are like your school family, and you
go to your form for 20 minutes every morning. From there on it was just an ordinary school day,
apart from ten times better!!!
Fears and worries
What if I don’t have any friends? What if I can’t do the work? What if I get into trouble all the time?
What if? What if? What if? Well there is no need to be scared or worried about Ossett academy.
Let’s start with friends. I don’t know anybody who doesn’t have any friends; every single person at
the school has loads of friends. “What about work?” you say. Well work is no problem whatsoever.
Everyone is given work that they can do, and put into a class due to the quality of work they can
produce. Trouble? You only get into trouble if you disrespect other students, and your teachers.
Things to look forward to
You can look forward to lots of trips, clubs, fun lessons and the home learning project. This year I
am going to London, Cologne(Germany), 2 book club trips, and the Leeds Christmas markets, so
you have all of these trips and more to look forward to. There are loads of clubs, such as creative
writing club, science club, book club, and many more!
