My name is Sadie and I was at Norfolk house for seven years (from Reception until Form 6) and this is my first year in Fortismere School, my secondary school.
At the end of Year 6, my main worry was the size. Compared to secondary schools, Norfolk house is very small, so I kept worrying about how I would find my way around the school and get to my classes on time. After about two weeks, I knew my way around the school and where all my classes were and the older kids would help me too if I needed it. I expected it would take a whole term to find my way around the school!
My favourite subject is drama. I like it because, although I enjoy all my lessons, I think that drama is really fun and interesting. Norfolk House prepared me well for secondary school. In class, sometimes I do activities like a comprehension on a passage. I use a lot of skills that I learnt from Norfolk House, like backing up a point with evidence, which have proved to be useful.
When I look back at my time at Norfolk House, I think of it as a positive seven years. Many memories come into mind, like exciting field trips and even ordinary school days I will never forget.
