8:25am
Tutor time
When I get to school I head to my locker and catch up with my friends before joining my tutor group. Being in a tutor group really helped me to settle into school life and to meet girls from across the Middle School.

8:30am
Classes
My favourite class is mathematics, and I am in the Math Enrichment club, where we have a range of topics to choose from in order to develop our problem-solving skills.

12:40pm
Co-curricular activities
At lunchtime I play touch rugby, or I go to orchestra, where I play the French horn. I love how we have a period set aside for co-curricular activities in the middle of the day, as well as a lunch break, as it means I get to participate in activities I might not have tried.

1:50pm
Back to class
We get to try a lot of different subjects before we choose the subjects we want to take further. We study four languages, and seven technologies throughout Middle School, as well as core subjects like English, social sciences, math, science, performing arts, PE and RE.

2:30pm
Speech and drama
We also get the opportunity to have speech and drama lessons, or to learn a musical instrument if we want to. It means that in addition to learning the French horn, I also have acting lessons.

3:30pm
After school
In the summer, after school, I play water polo in the SMC pool. It’s great fun to be in the water. Then it's home to spend time with my family and practice my music.
