My Day as a Year 7 by Mrs Jarrett – Part 5

I arrived in tutor, late! Ethan had taken centre stage this time. He was telling a gruesome story about some poor chap who survived despite every disaster you could possibly imagine. His illustrations on the board were quite graphic but it seemed to appeal to the boys!

Ollie-Bob has retrieved his shoes from lost property but has now lost his bag. Mrs Oliver has suggested she wraps him in Velcro and sticks all his possessions to him!

The bell went at 2:20 and we headed across the corridor to RS with Mrs Kelly, who encouraged some really great discussions about evolution. I was really impressed with the boys’ curiosity. They had definitely been thinking about what they had learned and were challenging some of the theories. I have a sneaky suspicion that, as Mrs Kelly was standing in for Dr Magill today, one or two boys might have been trying to catch her out. A foolish move, as her extensive knowledge was no match for any of them! I’d really like to come back and learn a bit more.

Just before the end of the lesson, Daniel asked me if sharks have tongues? Unfortunately, the bell rang before I could ask Mrs Kelly!
