This time last year

Our theme this week was school. First we all had to tell, for example, about our favourite subjects and think who are the most demanding teachers in Pikkola. The answers varied quite a bit, of course. Our song of the week, Christina Perri's Jar of Hearts, was chosen by Elisabeth Jenkins. At the end of the double lesson we also did some verb tense exercises. Anyway, below you can read what kind of memories we have from autumn 2011 when we all (including the teacher) started at Pikkola.

Last year I started the Finnish course at Tampere. There was alot of foreign people in there and alot of different cultures. The first 3-4 months I was very shy because I did’nt know a word in Finnish!  So I tried to hold my mouth shut as much as I could. I thought it was amazing to see all of these different people in front of you, and yes, I do think I’ve changed from last year because I learned alot of things about different people from different countries all around the world and that has changed my opinion about them.

When I started in Pikkola at last year, it was nicer than in primary school and more relaxed.
My impression of my classmates was quite nice and we have the best homeroom teacher in the school. I have chanced my hairstyle from August 2011. And maybe I’m a little bit taller and I have new friends now. The autumn 2011 was very nice. The new school was very nice and tidy. New friends were nice and friendly and I learned to know some old friends better too. I didn’t have any fears and dreams… I don’t remember, but some memories are good and some of these are not so good. But Pikkola is nice school.

When I came in Pikkola August 2011, I thought that Pikkola is nice and cosy junior high shool. There are really good teachers. I didn´t have any fears when I started studying here. My first impression of our class was okay. Our homeroom teacher was okay, too, but she left at christmas 2011, because she was pregnant, so we have now a new homeroom teacher Satu. Satu is really nice and friendly. I haven´t changed a lot. I only have new hair color, brown.

It was very exciting to start shcool in Pikkola. My first reaction was really good. It was bigger, better and it's much more relaxed than primary school. First I tought that I don’t like my class but then we got to know each other and we got along better. I guess I have changed pretty much from August 2011.

When I started at Pikkola’s school I was little nervous and excited because it was a new school. My class was pretty nice. I think I haven’t changed much from August 2011.

I think that it was pretty scary to start in Pikkola, but I was relaxed almost after the first hour. At first I thought that my class is wild and it is, but not so wild. I am more clever and older in physical and spiritual way after that year. I think school’s more important. I hope that when I end in Pikkola I have a good certificate.

When I started in Pikkola, I wasn’t scared at all, I was quite excited. It helped that I already knew some of the people in our class. I thought our class was nice. We don't have the same homeroom teacher anymore. I haven’t changed a lot. I have a new best friend and blonder hair.

Last autumn was the second time I started school in Pikkola. The first time was in 1997, and since then the school has changed quite a bit: lots of new teachers and a lot of renovation done in the building itself. In 1997 I remember being quite excited and a bit scared as well, but this time I was just thrilled to start at Pikkola. I knew that I was coming to a very nice school. Last autumn brought many new things for me, too, because it was the first time I started as a homeroom teacher. After one year I think my class knows each other a lot better and we usually have a good time learning new things together.

I started in Pikkola last year. It was fun. I was happy to get away from my old primary school. I thought that Pikkola was good school and this is nice and cosy place. My first impression of our class was okay. We have a nice class, sometimes we are a bit noisy. I made new friends very quickly. I didn’t have any fears, I was here in good thoughts. In a year I haven’t changed a lot, but I have brown hair nowadays.

Last year was quite exciting. We were lost last year because we were the first time in Pikkola. The couple first days were quite annoying because some people was bullying but some get over it. My class were is nice because I get some friends in my class too. I got some new friends in other classes too and I think that’s very nice. So the autumn was very nice first year in Pikkola.

When I first came to Pikkola my expectations were correct, because my expectations were quite simple (huge and lots of pupils). First impression of my class was calm, but nowadays it’s not quite the same. The teachers seemed nice and they haven’t changed. In the start I feared I couldn’t keep my good numbers up, but turns out that I got even better numbers. I was a bit upset when none of the friends that I hoped to be on the same class as me were not on the same class as me. On the bright side many of my childhood friends were on the same class.
