At last! Hooray! We finished all our exams last week. The last one was History. It was horrible. I

I did seven subjects. The worst was Science and History. I found them very difficult. I always forget
most of the things we’ve learned.
The best subject this year was Geography, but we only had it twice a week. We’re going to Wales
in the middle of August, to see my grandparents. Would you like to come with us? Mum says it’s
ok. Please write and tell me about your year at school. What was it like? Were your exams easy?
Bye for now.
