Lucy - My First Day at Balmac...


‘Beep beep beep beep’ is what I woke up to at 6:40am on Tuesday morning. At first I thought that the house was on fire, but then I realised it was just my alarm clock telling me to wake up for my first day at Balmacewen Intermediate. Sleepily, I turned it off, threw my blanket off me, and headed off into the kitchen to fix my breakfast.
From the moment I stepped out of the car, the driveway to school was absolutely swarming with people wearing red jerseys. How many people were there? Most definitely more than three hundred (There was actually more than 480). We all piled into the school hall, wondering what our teachers and class mates would be like. New friends, maybe? Mr Sloan stood up, and called out names. “Lucy Bell”. Did he call my name? Or was it just my imagination?
From the moment I sat down at my new desk, I knew that this year would bring fun and enjoyment, as well as challenges.
