Hello!

I’m your new e-pal. My name is Sarah Campbell and I’m 11.

I live in Roseburn, a suburb of Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland.

I’ve got a baby brother, his name is Sam, he’s 10 months old and he loves playing with Brownie,
his Teddy bear. I’m a student at Roseburn Primary School. It is a big and modern school. There
are 620 students and 38 teachers.

There are 16 classrooms, two music rooms, two art rooms, a cafeteria, a gymnasium and a big
swimming pool. Our classroom is quite small.

I’m in Year 6. There are 12 girls and 10 boys in my class. My two best friends are Kate and Helen.
Kate’s tall and she has got long brown hair and green eyes. Helen is medium-height. She’s got
short curly red hair and blue eyes.

I usually get up at seven o’clock and start school at half past eight. School finishes at 4 in the
afternoon. My favourite subjects are Maths, English and P.E. and my favourite sport is volleyball.
I’m in the school volleyball team, we have practice on Mondays and Wednesdays.
There are also many clubs – Computer, Chess, Drama, Photography and Cookery. My favourite
one is the Drama Club.
What about you, what’s your favourite subject? Do you attend any school club?
Write soon!
Sarah
