Thursday was the last full day of school. we were allowed shirts to be signed (to which i had “Property of X-team” wrote across my back!) photo were taken and all that jazz….

Friday was the big day, getting int

o school at 8am! because Dale without telling us; had volunteered the X team for the set up of the Leaver assembly. So in 3inch hill boots i tried to help and finally gave in and went to the breakfast in the refectory. More photos where taken and prom invites where handed out and breakfast was muffins and fruit with bottled water. So at 9:15 we moved over to the sports hall and started up the assembly. It started with year 11 giving a standing ovation to Mr Fairhurst the head of the school. He made a 20 minute speech. Then the fun started; we ran through the program with singers like Billy and Holly and Yasmin taking us lot from form on stage and talking about us, to reading poems. Then Mr Reynolds gave us the “best of luck speech” and played the sad spice girls music and kicked us out the hall.

I’ve never seen so many people cry in one room and be in the same year. slowly we got off the school grounds. Now myself Vicky, Matt and Solly had planned to go to lunch in Brentwood. We then added Nicole as me and her were going out that evening with the guys from sixth form; so we had a time limit. We invited Emma Q too as she is a very good friend to all of us! We waited outside the school for Matt and Solly for 10-15 minutes so me and Nicole decided we walk to mine so i could get changed as my feet were killing me; we’d then get the bus to Brentwood. Prefect timing Matt phoned me when we just getting on the bus to Brentwood. Beejal joined us and so did George for a while.

Poor Pizza Hut had 1/4 of shenfield turn up on there door step when they were short-staffed!

we then walked to the skate park for about 10minutes and then about 10 of us started to walk to Brentwood station. Me and Nicole left them and carried on walking to the station.

At shenfield we meet Adam, Jordan, Josh, Peter, Mark, WHO BUNKED A LESSON!!!! worse then me!!! tut tut tut! so we laughed and joked around and ran into Trudie and the other lot again and all bundled onto a train. The poor poor people who had most of year 11’s craziest people in the smallest space.

We went to go and see Spider-man 3! Boring or what! I could have gone to sleep! after we went again to Pizza Hut (twice in one day is tooooooo much) this was sooo funny, Jordan chatting up not 1 but 2 waitresses. One who was engaged! and him trying to pocket my phone and us lot telling Adam to keep his food down! then we walked back to the station. This was the saddest part of my day, maybe my life. Leaving this lot, well you might as well just be bipolar! I love them all terribly and I could not get any better friends, they kind and caring and I can re-lie on them for anything and I hope they know they can on me. I’d give my life for anyone of these lot! So trying to stop my water-works served impossible! and the rain made it worse! I got make-up all over Jordan’s designer shirt and Adam and Mark attacked my arse with the Kleenex tissues. This made it all the harder to leave them, know I will never have another wonderful lunch time full of laughs or a missed P.E lesson, or maybe a day off lessons for a set-up. Why i’m leaving them for college next year is a question I frequently ask myself. But we got on the train and I got home. Only to plan the next day I was travelling to Ongar too see them again!

I love you all so so much! I cannot thank you all enough for everything you have done for me. You are the best friends i have ever had and you all made the X-team, and coming to school the highlight of my days! The last 3 years have been amazing especially year 11’s lunch times. If I had the chance to stay I’d be grabbing it! Your all amazing!
