I have lots of good memories of beginning at EGA. At the start of term we learned about formal and informal photography styles in art. We made fruit salad in technology, but I accidentally dropped mine and couldn’t take it home! I also learned a dance called the Lindy Hop in my dance lessons. I have been to after school art club and made a picture with ink and a straw, and in music we had to create a rhythm using a horrible food combination, so I chose marshmallows and ketchup!Ayesha Uddin 7H It took me quite a while to get used to moving around the school, but I enjoy meeting new people and learning with new and diff erent teachers for each subject. I have also enjoyed learning new subjects like geography, IT and history, and new sports in PE. I know that more subjects will be introduced later and I can’t wait! I have had a wonderful start and can’t wait to see what the future holds for me.
Maziyah Chowdhury 7H My favourite things so far are using a Bunsen burner in science, and reading a really good book, ‘Private Peaceful’, in English.
Elif Ozkes 7H Making great new friends has helped me to settle quickly at EGA. They have supported me in lessons and encouraged me with my homework tasks.
Mahdia Rahmi 7H Starting EGA was scary as there were so many classrooms and buildings. But now I have made some amazing new friends and got along with everyone. My favourite subjects are geography, because I like to fi nd out about diff erent places around the world, and history because Ms Khanom tells us about people from the past. The school is enormous, the library is fantastic and there are lots of computers for us to use. The teachers are always ready to help and I look forward to my future at EGA.
Yasmin Aktar 7H The fi rst few weeks went past in a blur but now it is all great fun. All of the work that I used to fi nd boring, such as English and maths, are beginning to make sense now as the teachers are kind and willing to stay patient to help me. Before I came to EGA I knew that I would experience a life diff erent from primary school. When I look back I fi nd that it was easy to make friends, but also very easy to get lost!Senah Suleman 7H Year council election results - 2011
