                                                                        MY NEW SCHOOL

Hello, I’m Carmen. I come from Spain, but recently I moved to London and started studying in a private school there. First, I couldn’t find the school. It is located in an isolated place, so it was very difficult to get there. Then the school rules were different from my former school. I must wear a uniform and I mustn’t eat or drink in class, I mustn’t chew gum and I mustn’t cheat in tests, either. I like my new school; the teacher are kind and attentive. The school building is in excellent conditions. And I made some new freinds in my classroom. And after school, I get the same orders at home. My mother keeps telling me: “ Get up, don’t be late, and make your bed”.
