Hi, I'm a year 8 (bascically I've been in secondary for a year). I see many, MANY year 7's being ancious and worried about going to a new school. I'm going to give you some advice.
1. Make new friends. I have only got 2 of my old friends from primary. And, I'm the only one in my group to go to my old school. You will find many more friends who are more like you. Don't stay with your old friends.
2. Avoid older students. The older ones always make fights. My advice, stay on a bench with your friends. they don't come near you then. They may push in the lunch queue. I spread out or, when i'm not near any teachers, pull them back. Make them see that you're not a wimp.
3. MAKE SURE YOU'RE ON TIME! 5 minutes late and you're gone my friend. If you can, get changed early for PE. Have everything you need in your bag THE DAY BEFORE and pleeasse remember your homework. anything missing in class and you're in detention.
4. Try new things. We have around 6 new subjects in our timetable. Try them, work hardin them. you never know, you might like them (i know this form experience. I hated art in primary, but I draw every day now :))
5. HAVE FUN! these may be your most important years, but don't make that stress you out. Have fun, make new friends, try new things. These years will be amazing.
So, I hope that helps. Any questions? just ask.
Thanks for reading,

in my country you have to take exactly 14 tests that are 160 questions in 2 hours to get into university my countries "finals" just consists of a test with 40 questions 30 minutes and just boosts your end of year score a little bit
i hate my country |

| I'm a christian going to grade 7 in my school bullying is forbidden and even the people who generally try to be mean ### #### ## by nice people, so if you bully the whole school turns against you. There is no other choice than being nice, and I like that. But thanks! I've been through much worst. |

| Little story to you all. once, a fight got so bad that someone got arrested. However, the reason was fake, a rumor. don't listen to rumors. always make sure they have proof. |
