Day 1 Over....Phew!!

Well done Room 9...you have made it through your first day as a Year 8 at Balmacewen :)

It was great to see you all today, and a special welcome to
Will and Ebony who have joined us at Balmac for the first time.

What I would like you to do tonight is make your first comment on the blog, and become a follower (like we talked about in class). How did you feel this morning when you arrived in the hall? What are your thoughts on Day 1? What are you looking forward to in Term 1?
Remember you won't see your comment straight away as they come to my email and then I publish them. Please make sure you have your name at the bottom of your comment as well.

A number of notices went home with you today - hopefully these have made it out of your bag now!

I'm really looking forward to getting to know you all over the next few weeks, we have a lot to look forward to this term!

See you tomorrow! Miss Roney

Hi! The first day of room 9 was great! I was feeling a bit nervous when Mr Hunter read out the names, so I'm not sure how much of his speech I heard!! Its great to be in the same class as my friends. I'm looking forward to camp, and the aqaurium - especially the dissection!

I was really nervous as I arrived at school today, even though I knew I'd make friends and all the teachers were really nice, and I could hardly sleep at all last night!
But the day, though over-whelming, was really nice, and a great start to the year! I'm looking forward to camp(as everyone is!) and the speeches!
Thanks,
Caroline

Hi! I was really excited to come back to school after such a long time off but when all the year 7's names had been read out (including my sister) I was a bit nervous! I am glad they had the assembly at the end because i didn't hear anything he said! I can't wait to dissect something at the aquarium as i have already dissected fish and rats and it was awesome! hopefully camp this year will have good luck with the weather!

The first day of the term was really nerve racking but after the classes were read out I was fine. I am really looking forward to the upcoming term because of all the fun activities we will be doing and I hope the rest of the year will be just as good.
