Start by choosing a topic that you would like to write about.

TOPIC ONE:  Remember back to your first day of school this year. Write about your first day and meeting your new teacher. How did this go? How did you feel?	TOPIC TWO: Think of a time when we were at school where you felt really happy. What were you doing? Were you playing with your friends? Learning about something new?
Who was there with you?: Where and when did this happen?: What happened and how?:
Begin your writing here: Paragraph 1: It all started on the 9th of February 2021. It was that time of the year again where I had to go to school to learn more things. I was so excited to see my old friends and find out who my new teacher was. It would be time to finally see Elijah, Izyn and Jacob once more.  Paragraph 2: As I got ready for school I pondered the question: who was my teacher for the year?  Little did I know it was going to be Teachers.  When I got in the car I was still bound to that very same question: who would it be? After a few minutes driving I had finally arrived at Pt England School. I said bye to whoever was in the car and worked my way to the crossing where I saw the big red gates with an Electronic sign showing a lot of things.  Paragraph 3: It had been a while since I last saw a teacher as I waited I bumped into some familiar faces. I said “Hi” and they said hi back. After a while the bell rang and we migrated to the hall. After the assembly we were told which teacher’s we were going with. I was shocked to hear that I was with Mrs Lagitupu because she was my extension teacher. It was also surprising to find out Miss West took her place. I also found I have three teachers. So from there I climbed and climbed to the peak of my intelligence. The End.
