Meet the girls at YHS

 
 


Sheena Hogarth, Lily Anderson, paige Moorby, Georgia Lacey, Ellie Moriss, Ellie Ridley,Caitlin Elliott, Jess Pownall and Megan Steel are all excited to be getting involved in this partnership.
I asked them a few questions so that you could find out a bit about them:

Q. Where do you live and what's it like?
A. I live on the outskirts of the City of York in a place called Acomb. I like living here because there are lots of parks but if I want to find some good shops then I would have to travel into the main city centre. (Georgia)

Q. Tell me about your family. Do you have any brothers and sisters?
A. I have two brothers and two sisters. We all live close to the school that I attend. (Lilly)

Q. What is your school like?
York High School is a fairly new school ( made from two other schools joining together) that is situated in the middle of our local community. It is a large brick building with its own sports centre including a swimming pool, climbing wall, astro- turf and gym. Inside the main school there is a library with lots of computers and every classroom has a multi-media whiteboard that helps to make the lessons more interesting. (Ellie)

Q. What would you like to do when you leave school?
A. I would love to be a professional athlete as I am already a sports leader in school. If not I would like to work in the beauty industry. (Caitlin)

Q. What sort of music do you listen to?
A. I like pop music. My favourite group are 'One Direction'. They are amazing!! (Shenna)

Q. What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
A. I like going horseriding and I cycle everywhere which helps me keep fit:) (Caitlin)

Q. What's your favourite food?
A. I like all different types of food but my most favourite food is pizza. (Megan)

Q. Do you have any special talents?
A. I like to sing on the stage and I played an orphan in the school production of Annie recently. (Jess)

and lastly..
Q.Do you like animals and have any pets?
A. Yes, I have a dog, a love bird (which are quite rare in England ) and two fish! (Ellie)

So.. thats all for now. A very brief introduction to the girls but as a group we are excited about getting to make friends from a different country and finding out about our different cultures.
We break up for our Summer holidays next week but are looking forward to speaking on Skype when we come back to school in September:)
