Back to school tomorrow :(

[Liam W]

So, yeah. Normally I wouldn't mind (be a bit nervous), but this is different as the entire school is moving into a new build, which means a completely new environment - new form, new teachers, new students (we were on two sites, they are both being merged into the new building), which basically means I am ****ting myself with worry...

The reason I'm worrying so much could also be because noone knows what to do... Most people are just going to walk to the building and hope the staff will tell people what to do.

I hate not knowing what's going on - really makes me nervous.

Anyhow, I'm going into Year 11 (15-16), last year of secondary school (aw, there's no worried smiley!).

So yeah... Posted for anyone here that cares

Dont worry, simply enjoy yourself, as others will be going through the same.

Yeah, but they won't be worrying as much as me...

I went back to school two weeks ago.

Yeah, but you live in America, with your 3 month summer holidays

I don't go to school anymore, but it started on Wednesday here.

Well, my 'Academy' does like to be different, although it is different depending on the local authority - Lancashire went back on Wednesday, most other schools in my town/county went back Thursday, but, probably because of the new build, we go back Monday-Wednesday next week...

I wish I was back at school. You don't realise how good it is until you have to get a job! Starting at 9am and being home for 3:15pm

I'm not home for 3:15

I start at 8:40AM and school ends at 3:05PM... but it takes 20-30 minutes to walk home

At least it did from the old site, not sure about the new site...

I used to live directly across the road from my school, so didn't have to set off until 8:55 to be there for 9am.

It's been knocked down and moved to a different site now, so there is nothing left of the old school. It was also 14 years since I finished school

Bit like my Mum's... Most of them closed down

14 years? Wonder what I'll be doing when that's the same for me....

That's a bit mean, 7 hour school day!

If my school started at 8:15 there would be an uprising...

 

[Jeremy]

That's the norm in the US. I don't see an advantage to another hour.

I would only see a point of you got one of the weekdays off.

I'm normally bored at 5 hours, let alone 7...

You've got a really weird school. xD

Here it's 8:25 AM - 3:00 PM.

 

[Russ]

Yeah, but you live in America, with your 3 month summer holidays

Our school has changed it a bit this year, summer break is only two months now, however they get 1 week vacation in October, 3 weeks for Christmas instead of two, and one extra week for spring break.

It's interesting... but cool I suppose

 

[0ptima]

Yeah, but they won't be worrying as much as me...

You need to relax, its all in your head. No point in worrying, there is nothing you can do about it. Just go with the flow. You will be fine

I miss those days too. If only I could go back with the wisdom I have now....
