For me, this school was amazing. It was fun, I loved the teachers there, they gave me so much more confidence in myself and I will always remember them! However, as time progressed through the years, most of the people in my class were extremely stuck up and would pick on anyone, including me, even though my mental health was bad enough. I feel like bullying at this school is a problem, most of the time it is not dealt with accordingly and they think of alternatives to the situation than actually solving it. I used to feel really bad about this one boy in our class who used a wheelchair. He had some sort of brital bones thing so he broke many of his bones during the years. They were quite fragile and considering he was constantly being kicked underneath the table, the teachers didn't really know what was going on and any pupils that saw it happen were either sticking up for the people that were kicking him or were too scared to say anything so they wouldn't get bullied (me included in that category of people). Anyways, he and his parents thought it would be a good idea for him to get a wheelchair so he wasn't hurt as much, but my head denied any permission for him to use his wheelchair inside of school for health and safety reasons. I can kind of see where she was going with the idea of health and safety, but at the end of the day if the fire alarm does go off he can still walk down the stairs, get outside, and wait for the fire engines to come. I didn't like walking home afterschool with the boy in the wheelchair because I would just hear complaints upon complaints upon complaints of bullying and constant nit picking and harassing of this poor kid. So, personally, if your kid has any disabilities of some sort, it's not a good idea to bring them to the school because there's a huge chance that they're going to get bullied and the teachers won't do anything about it. Back to the positives though, I made a few freinds at the school. I changed freind groups oftenly every year because I didn't feel like I fit into them, but eventually I got somewhere and I found a me- a bubbly mental mess that is constantly being loud. I don't think the kitchen staff liked me much, or the little children. I don't think anyone really liked me much at that school. That's where I bring in another segway about the school therapists- Lucy and Tonya. I know Tonya was the main therapist of the school that would help anyone that was feeling bad, she had a very sweet voice and extremely optimistic and calm. I never had Tonya as my therapist when the school signed me up for it because I was always having constant mental breakdowns in the middle of class, but I did have Lucy. Lucy is the best. She makes you feel calm and lets all of your insecurity vanish as quick as a flash! Lucy was really calm and she wasn't like teachers that would just ask "what's wrong?" then give me a lecture about how making mistakes is ok for me and that I'm just learning. She opened up to me and let me doodle and stuff in her room. She also got me some cake for when it was my birthday which was really nice of her and then when the Monday evening sessions were over, she gladly bought some cookies for me to eat on the last day and I got to take them home with me. She made me feel really comfortable in my own skin. However, after the therapy I started to get really bad mental health- anxiety and depression and I think I might need to get another therapist, somewhere. Anyways, back on track. What else can I talk about... Ah yes! School dinners! School dinners were the best! I'm still really bothered about how they stopped serving cheesecake in year 1 though. That cheesecake was delicious. Rest in peace cheesecake, we will always miss you. The school's meals for people in year 1-2 are quite big (everyone gets served the same amount of food) but since my parents always told me to eat all my food, I did. I was fine with eating all my food. I like food, but again as time progressed the proportions were small. Especially around the end of year 6.
